Two different networks with an extender - AC1200 Wifi Range Extender model EX6110
Hi,
I've just installed an EX6110 to extend my home wifi network. However, it seems to create two networks (one from the router and one from the extender) rather than a bigger single network. So, which one do I connect to or do I have to connect to the one closest to me when I move around the house (surely not!!) - or have I confused myself!!! Thanks Martin

Well, it has to create a second WiFi network. But you can set the extender network names and passwords to match the names used in your router network.
Did you do that?
