Re: Netear Extender Tech Scam
If you googled for support, more than likely you did get a scam site. There's a ton of them out there. For netgear/linksys/tplink/etc.
Sadly, Netgear can't police the internet. They do they're best to get the ones using their name to take them down but new ones pop up constantly.
So your options?
1. Start a chargeback for that and dispute it on your paypal.
2. remove whatever they installed on your computer/have you computer scanned or just reinstall windows to it if you want to.
3. Contact actual netgear support for help setting up your product. Or use this site for help. Setting up an extender is pretty simple and shouldn't be that bad. We're willing to help.
To get a hold of actual support. Click on "MyNetgear" at the top of this page.
Register an account (or login) and then the device.
From there you can start the support process. Keep in mind that its only free for the first 90 days.
If your device was new, there's no charge for them to help setting it up. Thats how you know you got a scam site.
