How to create an access point for Netgear N750 model number WNDR4300V2
I recently purchased a Google Home mini. In order to use Chromecast it needs an access point. I have no idea how to do that. Can someone help?

other? Care to share?'> [...] WNDR4300V2
The wireless stuff in a wireless router like a WNDR4300V2 _is_ a
wireless access point; it's just not usually described that way, to
avoid confusion with a device which is _only_ a wireless access point.That was actually the recommendation from the Google Home Mini itself when trying to set it up. Am I supposed to buy another router and have one as an access point?

router (which includes a WAP).
