Enable or disable MU-MIMO
Multiuser multiple input, multiple output (MU-MIMO) improves performance when many
WiFi clients that are MU-MIMO-capable transfer data at the same time. For MU-MIMO
to function, WiFi clients must support MU-MIMO, and they must be connected to a 5
GHz WiFi band. This feature is enabled by default, but you can disable it.
To enable or disable MU-MIMO:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
extender network.
2. Log in to your extender:
• If you did not enable the One WiFi Name feature, enter
http://www.mywifiext.net/
in the address field of the browser.
