I am sure that you have come across a situation where your Wi-Fi is not working or it has become weak. The problem can be fixed by using a Netgear Extender Setup. You should know how to set up an extender and also how to use it as it will help you increase the range of your Wi-Fi network in your home or office.
Determine the best location to use the WiFi extender.
If there are any obstructions in the way, such as walls or other objects that may block the signal, move them out of its way before placing it anywhere else. If possible and practical, avoid placing an extender near other devices like microwaves or cordless phones because they could interfere with its operation and performance at home
Connect the Netgear extender to a power outlet near your router.
The first thing to do is connect the extender to a power outlet near your router. Make sure that you have a power outlet nearby and that it can be located within range of your router. If you are using an older model, there is no need to worry about this step. If all goes well then congratulations! You've successfully set up an extender with your new wireless network!
