    What router is it connected to? 

    What firmware is on it? 
    Did you set it up via wps or the installation wizard?

    Hi sassiegirl,


    Good day!

     

    Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

     

    Thank you for reaching us out. Is there any error message when you connect the laptop and printer to the extender's network? Are you using the One WiFi name feature?

     

    Please do not hesitate to let me know if you need further assistance. 

     

    Regards,
