WiFi extension... I don’t want it on another name!?
Hi
I bought this extender so I could pump WiFi around the house but the additional area it provides has a different WiFi name... so I need to switch networks on my devices when I move around the house. This can’t be right? Is there a way to just extend the same network?

You would need one of our mesh extenders the EX6250 or above models are all mesh.
