extender

I have two extenders , the first one that I have set up shos up as DREAM TEAM EXT_2 and EX_5 , but when I set the second one up it doesnt show anything at all , but all the lights will be green. How do I set it up where it will have its own set of identifiable properties so I can have certain things connected to each one.

    Both set up as wifi repeaters? Or is there an access point in there?

    Shows up in what? Do they both appear as connected  in whatever router feeds them?

     

    You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

    WiFi Range Extenders & Nighthawk Mesh - NETGEAR Communities

    Those things are very different from the standard Netgear routers covered in this section.

    I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.

    In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.

    You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.

    I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.

    Are both extenders EX6110?

    Or what actual models do you have? 

    What router are you connecting them to?
