Extending Wifi

The Ex7300 is a dual band extender. It'll boost both bands. But its also a mesh extender. Meaning it uses the same ssid as the router. And it has smart connect. Meaning you might have set it up to use the same ssid for both 2.4ghz and the 5ghz.
You can log into the extender and disable "onessid" and/or smart connect so both bands are visible (if you'd prefer)
