Which Netgear wifi range extender will work with my NETGEAR Fuse Mobile Hotspot?
Hi,
Which Netgear wifi range extender will work with my NETGEAR Fuse Mobile Hotspot? Some of the range extenders can only be configured using a LAN port. But my MacBook Air has no such port, so I'd need to configure it wirelessly. And which Netgear extender will be the easiest to set up?

Hello Andy999
The Ex6400 allows setup thew wifi or WPS as long as you can connect to it with a wireless device you are able to set it up.

Hi Darren M
Thanks for your help, but the EX6400 is not available on the Netgear website or on Amazon, but the Nighthawk is. Will that range extender work? Also, do I need something so robust? I don't live in a house. My apartment is about 1000 sq. feet and maybe 50 feet long. Are there other Netgear extenders that will do the same thing, but aren't such powerhouses?

If your looking for something more basic then the Ex2700 may work for you this can be configured over wireless as well.
