NetGear WiFi Range Extender
I used my cell phone and the WPS button to setup my Extender on my home modem. It shows up as 5GEXT on my wifi list, but the security type is "unsecured" How do I secure the extender? How do I enable the WPA2-PSK security type on the extender with my password?
Hello MichellepMiller
While you are connected to the extender go to www.mywifiext.net login with admin/password and there you can set up the security.

- Thank you very much. This solved my problem and my extender is working correctly with password protection on both channels. Much appreciated.
