To use WPS to connect the extender to your WiFi router:
1. Press the WPS button on the extender.
The WPS LED blinks.
2. Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your router or access point.
When the extender connects to your existing WiFi network, the WPS LED on the extender lights solid
white and the Link Status LED lights.
If the Link Status LED does not light, try again. If it still does not light, see Connect With the NETGEAR
Installation Assistant on page 15.
If your router supports the 5 GHz band, your extender attempts to connect to the
router’s 5 GHz band the first time you press the WPS button. If your extender connects
to the router's 5 GHz band, the extender's Link Status LED and Maximum Throughput
LED light solid white. If the LEDs don't light, follow the next step.
Note
3. If your WiFi router supports the 5 GHz band, repeat Steps 1 and 2 to connect the extender to the 5 GHz
band.
The Link Status LED and Maximum Throughput LED light solid white to confirm the connection.
4. Unplug the extender and move it to a new location that is about halfway between your router and the
area with a poor router WiFi signal.
The location that you choose must be within the range of your existing WiFi router network.
5. Use the Link Status LED to help you choose a spot where the extender-to-router connection is optimal.
6. If the Link Status LED doesn’t light amber or white, plug the extender into an outlet closer to the router
and try again.
Keep moving the extender to outlets closer to the router until the Link Status LED lights amber or white.
7. Take your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device to the location with poor WiFi router coverage.
8. Connect your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device to the extended network.
Your extender uses the same WiFi network settings as your router for its 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz extended
networks.
For example, if your extender connects to the router’s 2.4 GHz WiFi band, your extender uses your
router’s 2.4 GHz WiFi settings for both its networks:
Router 2.4 GHz WiFi network name. MyWiFiExample
Router 5 GHz WiFi network name. MyWiFiExample-5G
Extended 2.4 GHz WiFi network name. MyWiFiExample
Extended 5 GHz WiFi network name. MyWiFiExample
