Connect with WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) lets you join a secure WiFi network
without typing the network name and password. The WPS button is a
physical button on the router or access point.
WPS does not support WEP network security. If you are using WEP
security, see Connect with NETGEAR genie Smart Setup on page 8.
To connect with WPS:
1. Press the WPS button on the side panel of the extender.
The WPS LED blinks.
2. Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your router or access
point.
The WPS LED on the extender lights solid green, the Router Link
LED lights, and the extender is connected to your existing
WiFi network.
Note: If the Router Link LED does not light, try again. If it still
does not light, see Connect with NETGEAR genie Smart Setup
on page 8.
3. If your WiFi router supports the 5 GHz band, repeat steps 1 and 2
to connect the extender to the 5 GHz band.
