AC1900 Mesh Wifi Expander

Once I have installed (and hooked up to ) the wifi extender, does that automatically work for everyone that enters my home, or do they each need to individually download the nighthawk app and connect to the extender? Thank you!

    If you have it setup as a mesh extender (with the same ssid), if they have the ssid/password info for your network, it'll just work. 

    That's the benefit to the mesh devices.
