up a 5 GHz network, in the Name (5GHz SSID) field, enter new network names for your

extender WiFi networks, and click the Continue button.

Note: If you do not want to use the same security modes for your extender

networks as you use for your existing networks, clear the check box

before you click the Continue button. You then can configure the

security settings for the extender networks. However, you can also

change the security settings later.
