Getting Started
The WiFi Range Extender extends the wireless network to include the
area outside the range of your existing Wi-Fi network. Follow these
steps to correctly set up the Extender.
Placing the Extender and Applying Power
1. Place the Extender an equal distance between your router and the
wireless device located outside the range of your router.
DO DON’T
Tip: If you have to use a different location, move the
Extender closer to the device, but still within the
wireless range of the router.
2. Plug the Extender into an electrical outlet, and wait 1 minute until
the Extender starts. The Status LED turns green.

Connecting the Extender to an Existing
Wi-Fi Network
To extend the range of your Wi-Fi network, you will need to connect
the Extender to your existing Wi-Fi network. You have two options to
connect the Extender to your network.
Option 1: Connecting with WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
WPS lets you easily join a secure Wi-Fi network without typing
the network name and password. The WPS button is a physical
button on the Wi-Fi router, gateway, or access point.
If your router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup ),
NETGEAR recommends that you use Option 1; otherwise, go to
Option 2.
Tip: WPS does not support WEP network security.
If you are using WEP security, use Option 2
to connect.
Option 2: Connecting without WPS, using web browser setup guide
The web browser setup guide walks you through the necessary
steps to connect your Extender to an existing Wi-Fi network.
7
Option 1: Connecting with WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
1. Press the WPS button on the Extender.
2. Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on your wireless
router, gateway, or access point.
At this point, the Extender should be connected to your existing
Wi-Fi network, and the Link Rate LED on your Extender
lights up.
3. The Extender’s wireless network name (SSID) changes to your
existing Wi-Fi network name, with _EXT at the end of the name.
For example:
Existing Wi-Fi network name: MyNetworkName
New Extender network name: MyNetworkName_EXT
4. To connect additional Wi-Fi devices to your Extender network, use
the same network security key (passphrase) as is set on your
existing wireless network/wireless router.
8
Option 2: Connecting with web browser setup guide
1. Once the Extender is powered on and the Status LED is
green, use a wireless network manager on a PC to find and
connect to NETGEAR_EXT (SSID) wireless network.
Tip: You can use any wireless network manager utility
on a PC or tablet to find and connect to the
Extender wireless network.
After the connection with the PC is established, the PC to
Extender LED turns green. Next, you need to connect the
Extender to your existing Wi-Fi network.
9
2. Open a web browser window from the same PC, and the browser
should take you directly to the on-screen setup guide.
Tip: You can always access the Extender settings
again by typing www.mywifiext.net in your
browser URL bar.
10
3. The web browser setup guide walks you through the following
steps:
• Selecting the Wi-Fi network you would like to extend.
• Entering the security passphrase for the existing network.
• Choosing the name for your new Extender network.
• Connecting your wireless devices to your new Extender
network.
4. If you want to make changes after using the web browser setup
guide or you wish to run the setup guide again, use your browser to
go to www.mywifiext.net. If prompted, log in as admin with
password as the password.
