One-Port WiFi Adapter
Once the extender is connected to your existing wireless WiFi
network, you can use the Ethernet port on the extender to connect a
device wirelessly to your network. Simply plug the Ethernet cable
from your Ethernet-enabled device (connected TV, Blu-ray player,
gaming console) to the Ethernet port of the extender, and enjoy
wireless connectivity.
When to Use the Extender Wireless
Network
NETGEAR recommends that you connect to the extender wireless
network only when a computer or wireless device is in a “dead zone”
where the network connection to your existing router is very poor or
nonexistent. This is because data traffic routed through the extender
wireless network is slower than traffic directly from the original
wireless router network.
If you cannot connect from your wireless device to the extender,
move the extender to a different location halfway between the device
and the router. If, after you try several locations, the device cannot
connect to the extender, move the extender closer to the device.
