<h1>How To Setup Wifi Extender</h1>

Without WPS it may take a little longer to connect your wifi extender, but the idea is the same. First, you'll want to connect the end of your Ethernet cable, or Cat5 cable, into the Internet port on the extender and the other end into the Internet port on your wifi router.
If you've had the same internet setup for awhile and you didn't set it up yourself, don't panic. You can setup a wifi extender on your own. Can't remember what the Ethernet cable is? It's typically the blue cord.


The next step is to connect the Ethernet cable into the LAN port on the extender and the other end into an Ethernet port on any computer that has a connection to your network. After you launch your web browser, type the IP address of the wifi extender into the address field (or address bar). This is when it's handy to hang onto the instructions as you will find the address in the manual.

After you have entered the extender's IP address, the configuration page will open, and you should click wireless settings, enter your wireless network name in the SSID box, and then save. Next, click on wireless security, select the security type (like WEP), type in the password, and then save. Keep in mind that your options may be different depending on your operating system, but if done correctly, you will have successfully setup your wifi extender.
After you unplug your Ethernet cords from the extender and router, you should plan on positioning your extender within an acceptable range from your router.

Extender means it extends the existing Wifi or network. So the iPad now connects fine to the extender, but the extender needs to connect to the existing network either via Wifi or cable. You need to open from the iPad the admin page of the extender and find the connection details there to your existing network.
