Netgear EX6000 Setup
Before configuring the Netgear EX6000 setup, plug it into a power outlet near your router. Join the NETGEAR_EXT network with a WiFi-capable device, and then use a web browser to navigate to the mywifiext.net setup page. As directed by the setup wizard, connect the extender to your existing WiFi network. After setting it up, move the extender to the optimal location to increase coverage. Once your devices are connected to the enlarged network, you can start making use of the stronger WiFi signal.
