Anleitung Zusammenfassung
The WPS button is a physical button on the Wi-Fi router, gateway, or access point. If your router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), we recommend that you use Option 1; otherwise, go to Option 2. Tip: WPS does not support WEP network security. If you are using WEP security, use Option 2 to connect. Option 2: Connecting without WPS, using the web browser setup guide The web browser setup guide walks you through the necessary steps to connect your Extender to an existing Wi-Fi network. Option 1: Connecting with WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) 1. Press the WPS button on back panel of the Extender. The WPS LED on the front should blink. 2. Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on your wireless router, gateway, or access point. If successful, the WPS LED on your Extender turns solid green, the 2.4 GHz Link Rate LED lights up, and the Extender should be connected to your existing Wi-Fi network. Note: If the 2.4 GHz Link Rate LED does not light up, repeat steps 1 and 2, or make sure your router supports WPS. 3. If your router supports the 5 GHz band, repeat steps 1 and 2 to connect the Extender to the 5 GHz band. The 5 GHz Link Rate LED on your Extender should light up. The Extender’s wireless network name (SSID) changes to your existing Wi-Fi network name, with _2GEXT or _5GEXT at the end of the name, depending on whether the Extender is connecting to your Wi-Fi network in 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz. Existing Wi-Fi network name: MyNetworkName New Extender network name: MyNetworkName_2GEXT To connect additional Wi-Fi devices to your Extender network, use the same network security key (password) as is set on your existing wireless network/wireless router. Option 2: Connecting with web browser setup guide 1. Once the Extender is powered on and the Power LED is green, use a wireless network manager on a computer to find and connect to NETGEAR_EXT (SSID) wireless network. Tip: You can use any wireless network manager utility on a computer or tablet to find and connect to the Extender wireless network. After the connection with the computer is established, the Wireless Device to Extender LED turns green. Next, you need to connect the Extender to your existing Wi-Fi network. 2. Open a web browser window from the same PC, and the browser should take you directly to the onscreen setup guide . Tip: You can always access the Extender settings again by typing in your browser URL bar. 3. The web browser setup guide walks you through the following steps: • Selecting the Wi-Fi network you would like to extend. • Entering the security password for the existing network. • Choosing the name for your new Extender network. • Connecting your wireless devices to your new Extender network. Extender Configuration Settings If you want to make changes after initial setup, or you wish to run the setup again, you can always access the Extender configuration settings again by typing in your device’s browser address. When prompted to log in, use the following information: User name: admin Password: password Extender Performance The Link Rate LED indicates the performance of the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz wireless connection from the Extender to a router. • The best performance is delivered when the Link Rate LED is green. • A workable performance is delivered when the Link Rate LED is amber. • A red Link Rate LED indicates a poor connection or no connection. • If the Link Rate LED is off, there is no connection between the Extender and the router. Tip: Make sure your Wireless Device to Extender LED is green before you check the Link Rate LED for performance. To improve Extender performance: 1. Move the Extender closer to the router or to a different location with a better line of sight. 2. As you move the Extender, check the Link Rate and the Wireless Device to Extender connection LEDs on the front panel until you find a good location. FastLane™ Technology Fastlane™ Technology offers maximum Wi-Fi performance. It provides high-speed Wi-Fi with a dedicated band connecting the Extender and the wireless device, and a second band connecting the Extender and the router. It is ideal for HD gaming and HD video streaming. To enable FastLane Technology: 1. After you have set up the Extender, switch to FastLane mode by logging in to to access the Extender Settings page. 2. In the menu options on the left side of the Settings table, select Advanced > Operating Mode. 3. Select FastLane Technology. 4. Review the two FastLane Technology options, and select the one that suits your setup. 5. Click Apply. Tip: To maximize performance, FastLane limits device connection to the band you select. NETGEAR recommends that you choose the band that most of your devices support.
