Q: Questionwill this product work with Spectrum

Asked 5 years ago by bh.

• A:Answer That depends on how organic your equipment is to spectrum. I have a spectrum modem but a nighthawk router and they paired seamlessly. I imagine it would work just fine if you have the bridged modem/router in one from spectrum.

Asked 5 years ago by Roscoe.

• A:Answer I had no problem connecting to my Linksys Router. I don’t think the Netgear extender cares as long as it has the 2.4 and 5Ghz bands

Q: QuestionI tried connecting this extender to my Xfinity Modem, which has both 2.4G and 5G Wifi. The extender seemed to connect okay to the 5G, but not the 2.4G . Why not the 2.4G, or doesn't it matter?

Asked 5 years ago by Craig.

• A:Answer Just something to double check when you are setting up your different extender networks is that you are on the 5ghz WiFi network when you are setting that one up and the same for the 2.4ghz. So if you are setting up by smart phone, after you set up 5ghz you will need to go to the settings in your phone and switch over to the 2.4ghz network.

Q: QuestionDoes it make a difference if the antennas are pointed up or to the side, also I had to plug it in upside down, does that make a difference?

Asked 5 years ago by Bert.

• A:Answer Dear Bert; Yes, the antennas are important. They need to be pointed towards a specific area. For example, if your computers are downstairs and the Wi-Fi is upstairs, you should point one downstairs and one upstairs. Upside down would do no good. You've got a great extender there. This one gives good coverage. Best of luck, Consultant Brian

Q: QuestionHave a question can I have my Internet modem in one room and. connect a hard weire from the extended to a computer and have a connection to the internet in a different room

Asked 5 years ago by Question.

• A:Answer Dear Question Guy; Yes, there is an ethernet connection in the Wi-Fi extender. You can run a hardwire from it and into a computer. Should work fine. No issues. I've got a few clients who get a better connection that way. I've even found certain materials used in walls to interrupt signal strength. Go for it. Consultant Brian

Q: QuestionI installed it through the app and it says it was successful but I only see my original wifi name and not the wifi name_ext like I've seen with other extenders. Did I not install it right? Or is it supposed to appear as just your wifi name?

Asked 5 years ago by Wifiname.

• A:Answer I believe the ext is the older version. The newer ones use your same Wi-Fi name and your device jumps right on it when you are in range. I got two like this and 1with ext
