It doesn't have an extender mode.
You can hardwire it in and use it in access point mode.
Would work great for that if you have an ethernet run to connect it to
thanks for your reply plemans .
i think i found the solution from here
i think bridge mode is what works like an extender?!
Close but not quite. Bridge mode doesn't repeat the signal for other devices to connect to.
Its a wireless bridge between router--router
Nope. Only AP Mode (requiring a network cable to the primary router LAN) or BBridge mode (making it possible to assign the router as an Wi-Fi connected Ethernet port.
