    Just brought a NETGEAR wifi Range Extender and Thank you so very much for having this video still posted even though you did this back in Dec. 2016. You explained it very clear in which I could understand besides slow, so I could pause it and not miss anything afterwards. This helped a lot, not that I have windows 10 but you explained it all different ways in hooking it up and connecting.

    Thank you so much for the video. I had tried several times using the inst. in the box to get my extender installed but could not get it so just reboxed it and set aside. Your video explained it so simple and easy, I was able to hook it up in 10 min. after days of frustration, needing extra BP medication to reduce the high BP it had caused me, and saved me calling a computer company to come hook it up for me. It was easy as pie after watching your video. THANK YOU.. you have extended my life expectancy.. ha

Have a big apartment and we can't extend the router to the center naturally, I at first changed the channel of both wifi signals and it definitely helped a lot. I was able to connect my Xbox in the furthest room but still not strong enough to get past 15% of an update. So I look forward to seeing how well I can play my games on this. :)

    Thanks, setup is a little bit different on mine but close enough. It helped me on what to expect in the installation without reading the manual. The amber light to green and the extension url to find it is the same.

      Ethernet Port.

      Is the Ethernet port used to connect one device or network input?

    • @nicelogin2
      @nicelogin2 7 лет назад +2

      It serves two functions. 1) In order to get to the setup screen, you are required to hook up the extender to a device, such as a laptop, via ethernet cable. 2) After the setup, you are given the option to link up your router to your extender via the same cable.

    Your video is great and worked perfectly! My Story - Bought my AC1200 Netgear Range Extender, Model EX6150v2 about 2 years ago. Worked fine (okay, had hassles trying to set it up at first) and it was bulletproof for years. Then I swapped out routers and had to "mate" my Extender to my new router. 1st problem was I opened NetGear Genie and it said there was an update available, so I updated. When I looked at Genie to set up my AC1200 it didn't list my model, so I tried following the links to mywifiext.com and it went nowhere. My solution was to plug in the AC1200, let it warm up until I had two green lights, then put the end of a paperclip into the hole labeled "Factory Reset" for about 10 seconds. I think it came up with only one green light - anyway once it was in reset mode I was able to find it in my WiFi list and use mywifiext.com in my browser and everything worked the way this video said it would work. Once it was setup I unplugged it and moved it to the room that had a weak signal. Thank you Nickscomputerfix!

    fantastic video very informative i have yet to set mine up as currently i have a long wire leading from my living room to the top of my stairs ( has im in a flat) and i havr a ring doorbell on my down stairs front doorbell so i am hopeing by buying this that i can eliminate the long wire and put my router back in the living room and the extender in my hallway and fingers crossed the signal will boost to my ringdoorbell down the stairs on the outside of the front door, do u think this will work for me, i look foward to hearing from you many thanks.

    Hi Nick, I am trying to attached this extender to Comcast modem 5Ghz router. Everything goes fine until the very last step. It won't connect and gives me the 404 page. Is this extender able to use a 5gHz router? Loved the video it is very clear and straight forward.

    I just finished set up my N300 WiFi Range Extender by following your instruction, your setup video made thing easy,Thanks.
    By the way, I try to reset the extender so I insert a pin to the Factory reset button for a few second, the power on/off button become amber, after about 3 minutes, all LED Descriptions go back to Green, before I reset it, can you tell me how to make it back to Factory setting? Thank you.

    • @nickscomputerfix

      You need to press the reset for at least a good real 10 to 14 seconds.

    Great Video, I have a question. Recently we had our modem/router rewired to the basement. I now use a network adapter card to get my internet. However, the Router is in the basement on the opposite end of the house. I get about 5-8 MBPS In my room, but the living room gets about 10-13 MBPS and is right next to my room. If I were to purchase this extender and put it in the living room, connected with my PC In my room, would I receive closer to 10-13 MBPS?

    • @nickscomputerfix
      @nickscomputerfix  7 лет назад +1

      Unfortunately, there is no clear cut answer to your question. WiFi signal strength, distance, quality and signal consistency is not only dependent on the WiFi equipment but also the structural obstacles that the signal has to pass through to get to your WiFi devices. Examples: walls and cement floors. And don't forget location of the Extender within your house or building.

    I received an upgrade from Frontier, and they disabled the wifi on my router and added a eero mesh extender. So now I cannot get my ring floodlight camera to work which was using my netgear n300 extender that was in turn connected to my router. So i think i'm screwed because I don't believe I can piggy back the netgear extender off the eero extender.
    My ring doorbell camera still works as it used the wifi directly from the router and works with the eero extender. Any thoughts?
