Configuring WN3000RP
Be informed that NETGEAR advises that you ensure that the NETGEAR and the wireless router are in the same room as you perform setup for the first time. Once setup is over and verified, then move extender to its preferred location.
1.Using a device that is wireless-enabled, scan for wireless network and enter NETGEAR_EXT network. You will not be required to input any password.
2.Using the same computer, open browser window. A Smart Wizard will launch, and if it does not, visit www.mywifiext.net or 192.168.l.l.
3.While on 192.168.l.l, choose your preferred language and select Continue. The Smart Wizard or 192.168.l.l searches existing wireless networks and when search is complete, it lists all available networks.
4.Choose the name of the network you want to extend from the existing networks and click on Continue.
5.Enter security key and Continue.
6.Select check box if you would like to maintain same wireless settings for extender as existing network.
7.Click Continue. Smart Wizard will take about two minutes connecting to existing network.
8.Use wireless device to connect extender wireless network.
