Connect the extender to your WiFi network
using WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) lets you join a secure WiFi network
without selecting the network name and entering the password.
1. Press the
WPS
button on the extender until the WPS LED
blinks green.
2. Within two minutes, press the
WPS
button on your router.
The WPS LED on the extender lights solid green, the Router
Link LED
lights, and the extender connects to your WiFi
network.
If the Router Link LED doesn’t light, try again. If it still doesn’t
light, see Connect the extender to your WiFi network using the
NETGEAR installation assistant on page 9.
Note:
If your router supports the 5 GHz band and your
extender didn’t connect to that band, repeat the WPS process.
3. 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 extender must be within the range of your WiFi router
network.
