Setting up a wifi extender
These products are junk. Why cannot I simply use WPS to connect this to my router??? It makes you use the extender which has lousy internet to go through this.

No, YOUR response is drivel! My router has a WPS button and so does the NetGear wifi extender. There were no instructions on using that simple method to connect my extender to my router. All instructions had me going to my iphone with a poor internet connection and using the extender to go to the Netgear site. Slo-mo and stupid.

Did you? Which part of "To use WPS to connect the extender to your
WiFi router: [...]" was unclear?

With my weak psychic powers, I still have no idea what you're
reading, or what you're doing, or what happens when you do whatever you
did.

Something seems to be.
