wifi extender
hi firstly thanks for any help received, i am looking for a wifi extender, that can connect with a wifi password only, its for taking on holiday, the apartment i go to in Crete i am always on the top floor of 3,and do not get the wifi signal on the top floor, so i am looking for an extender(small enough to fit in a suitcase) that will work with just the wifi password only as i cant touch the apartments wifi router, every extender i read up on has to be paired with the router, but as im in holiday apartments, i dont have access to the router, just the password, so is there such an extender that can be paired by wifi password only, thanks Robert 👍🏼

Re: wifi extender
Most if not all of netgear's wifi extenders have the option to use the smart installation wizard. You dont need access to the router to use this method. All you need is the ssid and password. If you visit a extenders support page, it'll have both a manual that walks you through the manual install as well as usually a video showing you how. I never use wps and prefer to use the manual route as it tends to work better in my experience
