You can use the Wireless Settings screen to change the network name (SSID) for the extender’s network and to set up wireless security.

If you do not change these settings, the network name is NETGEAR_EXT and the network is open (no wireless security is set up).

To change the wireless settings for the extender network: 1. Select Setup > Wireless Settings.
