Getting Started
The NETGEAR WiFi Range Extender increases the distance of a
WiFi network by boosting the existing WiFi signal and enhancing the
overall signal quality over long distances. An extender repeats the
signals from an existing WiFi router or access point.
You can also connect the extender to your router or gateway with an
Ethernet cable and use the extender as an 11ac access point. See
Install the Extender as an Access Point on page 15.
Existing WiFi
