Wifi Extender in the Access Point mode

Question

I am using the Netgear Wifi extender model EX6150 v2 with the side switch in the Access Point position, connected to my router with an ethernet cat 6 cable.

This is extending my wifi signal to my nest cameras, however it inicates that it is an unsecured wifi signal?

Can I do something with the unit to correct that?

If I were to change the side switch position to Extender, and not use the direct cable connection, I believe it will produce a secured signal.

The difficulty is in that setup it does not send the wifi signal as far as I need.

Thanks for whatever advice you can offer.

It just means that you need to log into the extender and setup its wireless security.&nbsp;you can find the manual with instructions on that here:https://www.netgear.com/support/product/EX6150v2.aspx
