# Netgear WiFi Extender Setup
Installing a Netgear wifi extender is the most efficient way to extend the range and speed of your existing WiFi. A basic router may be capable of providing WiFi to a small house or apartment, but it may not be capable of reaching a larger property. As a result, Internet access will be unavailable in some areas of larger homes. A WiFi range extender can help you solve this problem. After you've finished configuring your Netgear range extender, it will rebroadcast WiFi signals from your router throughout your home, allowing you to have WiFi in every room.

A Netgear wifi extender can be configured in one of two ways:
* Manual setup (Web browser setup)
* Wireless protected setup (WPS)

To configure a Netgear extender, follow the steps below:

1. Connect the Netgear range extender to a power supply.
1. It should be installed close to the existing router.
1. Connect the Netgear ext SSID to the network manager.
1. To access the [mywifiext.net](https://www.wirelessextendersetup.org/netgear-wifi-extender-ip-address/) website, use any web browser.
1. On the mywifiext login page, create an account.
1. To expand a network, tap the name of the network you want to expand.
1. To complete the setup, click the Finish button.
1. In the dead zone, you can now disconnect and reconnect your Netgear extender.

This brings the discussion to a close. Netgear range extenders can be installed in under 10 minutes. Don't worry if you can't manually install your extender. If you are unable to install your WiFi booster manually, you can do so in a matter of minutes by using the WPS method.

If you have a Netgear extender and are having trouble manually configuring it, you should try wireless protected setup (WPS), a new method for configuring your wifi repeater that takes only two minutes and is considered the quickest and easiest method. You are not required to enter your password, username, or SSID. A small button on both the extension and the router must also be pressed.

To configure your Netgear Extender using WPS, please follow these steps:

1. Turn on your Netgear Extender.
1. It must be located near the router.
1. Look for the WPS button on the booster's side.
1. To solve the problem, use WPS.
1. On your router, press the WPS button.
1. Wait until the repeater blinks three times in a row.
1. If it flashes three times in a row, the connection between your Netgear extender and router is working properly.
1. Remove the extension and reattach it to the dead point.
1. You can now finish the Netgear WiFi Extender Setup with WPS.
