Important: This link is only functional when your device is connected directly to the Net Gear extender (via WiFi or Ethernet).
A WiFi extender is a device that receives the signal from your current router and retransmits it to areas of poor connectivity. Net Gear extenders are particularly useful in covering broad spaces, rooms with thick walls, upstairs, and outdoor spaces.
You can expect to encounter some roadblocks in the process of getting started:
•MyWiFiExt.net or MyWiFiExt.local won’t open
•Can’t find NET GEAR_EXT WiFi signal
•Strange LED light behavior (i.e., no lights, flashing continuously)
•Not able to launch Net Gear Genie setup interface
•Router signal doesn’t reach beyond during installation
•Lost login credentials
•Ethernet port does not work as expected
1. Plug in your extender near your primary router. 2.Connect to the extender's default network (NET GEAR_EXT) from your device. 3.Launch a browser and enter MyWiFiExt.net. 4.Log in or sign in to create a Net Gear account if asked. 5.Select your home WiFi from the list. 6.Enter your router's password and proceed. 7.Finish setup by following instructions on screen.
For extenders without an LAN port, do this: 1.Press the reset button for around 7 seconds to reset to factory settings. 2. On your mobile or laptop, connect to NETGEAR_EXT. 3. Visit MyWiFiExt.net in your browser. 4. Use the setup wizard to scan and link to your WiFi. 5. Confirm placement in an area that still receives a good signal from the router.
