Steps to Configure Netgear Wn2500rpv2 (n600) WiFi Range Extender
Netgear WiFi range extender
boosts your existing wireless range coming out from the main router – spread
all over to cover blind spots, dead zones, and poor connectivity areas. Netgear new extender setup can be used in
access point mode as a WiFi access point and create a new hotspot making use of
an Ethernet cable.
Important
Note: When you
start the configuration process of your WiFi range extender, it is recommended
to take your device away from interference creating metal objects/ walls/
gadgets, electronic toys, Bluetooth speaker/ devices, etc. After that, you can
move your device anywhere.
Handy
Guide to Setup Netgear WiFi Extender
Bring your range extender
within the range of your existing WiFi router and plug them both into an
electric wall outlet. Wait for few minutes for the LED lights on your
Wn2500rpv2 range extender to become stable. Now, from your laptop or computer,
search for Netgear SSID and once you have found it, consider connecting with
it.
Also, note down that you can
either use wireless utility or wireless network manager utility on a
WiFi-enabled device (computer/ laptop) to connect your tablet or an iPhone to
the extender’s wireless network.
Now, you have to launch a web
browser from the same computer/ laptop and into the address bar type mywifiext.
Once done, you will find on-screen instructions on how to setup a Netgear WiFi extender.
For this, you have to type
default login credentials, hit on enter and Netgear Genie will start searching
for the available and active WiFi network nearby or within the reach of your
location. You have to select a network that belongs to you, connect to it and
click on continue.
Moreover, if you enable
wireless security on your existing home network, then you are supposed to enter
the network key (password) for the same. Here, you have to enter passphrase to
continue the setup process.
If you don’t find any wireless
network within the range, then it is recommended to check the main network
whether it is within the range of your Netgear extender or not. In case, the
wireless extender you are going to configure supports 5GHz band, then it is
required to select the same for your main router. Once done, click on continue.
On the other hand, you can
click on the icon ‘no my router doesn’t support this band’, and continue to the
next step of your main router doesn’t support 5GHz band.
Did your router and range
extender fail to establish the WiFi connection? If yes, then you can follow
some cookie creamy steps mentioned below.
·
Check
the URL first and after that, the password you have entered for the setup of
your WiFi range extender.
·
Moreover,
try setting up your Netgear device by placing it near to the main router.
Conversely, if you have enabled MAC access list of the router or MAC address
filtering is turned on, then it is recommended to enter the MAC address of your
n300 wireless range extender.
Now, once the connection
between range extender and the router has been established successfully, you
will be prompt to change the settings of the n300 device.
Note: In case you don’t wish to
change the settings, then without changing the settings you can continue
further.
Moreover, you have to verify
the settings whether they are correct or not. You can now connect the range
extender to your WiFi-enabled devices. As soon as your device gets connected to
the smart wireless range extender, you are supposed to get back to the
home-screen of Netgear Genie.
Here, you have to check the
option that says ‘my wireless device is connected to the extender network’. At
last, click on finish to end the setup process.
Fab! You can now start browsing
the internet on multiple devices, enjoy streaming videos and movies with any
connectivity or signal problem.
