Extender plus dhcp
I need basic router functions to host several devices and network them together. I also need the router to pickup an available outside wifi signal and share it inside this network.

Hello KevinKesler
Any of our extenders can do this it just depends if you need multiple ethernet connections if so you may want to look at the ex700 or ex6200.

I have a ex6200
2 laptops
2 tablets connected to ex6200
Ex6200 assigning addresses (dhcp)
Ex6200 connecting to the Hotspot on my cell phone for internet connection.
Ex6200 sharing internet connection with all its connected devices
I need step by step help with this, since I can't seem to figure it out.- DarrenMSr. NETGEAR Moderator
Hello kevinKesler
The issue you might have is the Ex6200 cant do DHCP its only a extender you would need some type of router you may want to check out the R7100LG if you are using cell internet you can put a sim card in it.
