Get Started

N300 WiFi Range Extender

The WPS LED lights solid green, the Router Link LED lights, and the extender

connects to your existing WiFi network.

If the Router Link LED does not light, try again. If it still does not light, see Connect with

Web Browser Setup on page 11.

3. Find the new extender network name on your computer or WiFi device.

The extender’s wireless network name (SSID) changes to your existing WiFi network

name, with _EXT at the end of the name, for example:

• Existing W

iFi network name. MyNetworkName

• New extended network name. MyNetworkName_EXT

4. Connect your computer or WiFi devices to the new extended WiFi network.

Use the same WiFi password that you use for your WiFi router.

5. Unplug the extender and move it to a new location closer to the area with a poor WiFi signal.

The location that you choose must be within the range of your existing WiFi router

network.

6. Plug the extender into an electrical outlet.

7. W

ait for the Power LED to light amber and then turn green. If the Power LED does not

light, slide the Device On/Off switch on the side of the extender to the On position.

8. Use the Router Link LED on the front panel to help you choose a spot where the

extender-to-router connection is optimal.

Connect with Web Browser Setup

You can use a web browser to log in to the extender and set up its WiFi connection to your

existing WiFi router.

 To use a web browser to connect the extender to your WiFi router:

1. Use a WiFi network manager on a computer or WiFi device to find and connect to the

NETGEAR_EXT WiFi network (SSID).

After the connection with the computer or WiFi device is established, the Client Link LED

lights solid green.

2. Open a web browser window from the same computer or WiFi device.

The browser takes you directly to the extender login screen. If you are not automatically

directed to login screen, enter www

.mywifiext.net in the address field.

The login screen displays.

3. Click the NEW EXTENDER SETUP button.
