This article will show the step-by-step procedure on how to install WN3000RP v2 as a wireless extender.

To install WN3000RPv2:

Using your wireless computer, tablet or smartphone, view the available wireless networks and connect to the WN3000RPv2 SSID. The SSID is:
- SSID: NETGEAR_EXT
Once connected to the network, the Extender Client Link LED will turn on.
Launch an internet browser and go to www.mywifiext.net. NETGEAR genie displays.
Select the SSID and click Continue.
Type the network passphrase/key and click Continue.
Enter the settings for the Extender and click Continue.

NETGEAR genie will now apply the settings.
Connect to the extender wireless network and click Continue.
Click Finish after getting the Congratulations page and the Arrow LEDs turn on.
