Restart Your Netgear Extender

We know that you have reset your Netgear WiFi range extender, but restarting is the different process. Resetting means to reset the device back to factory default values and restarting means to give the device (Netgear extender) a fresh start.

Remember that, connection between your Netgear extender and your host router is very important if you want to reconnect to the extender’s WiFi after resetting. So, once you are done with completing the Netgear extender reset process, connect it with your host router right away.

You can connect your Netgear EX6110 extender and router using two source:

  • First is using the wired (Ethernet) source
  • Second is using wireless (WPS) source

In Ethernet source, you have to take an Ethernet cable and then connect its one end in your host router and the other end in your EX3110.

In wireless source, press the WPS button on your EX3110 and then press the WPS button on your host router.

If you are still having issues connecting to Netgear_ext, then we suggest you change its current location. While changing the extender’s location, ensure to change the location of your host router as well. Also, you must avoid placing the devices in a corner or back of any device.

Accessing Netgear installation assistance page can be done either using www.mywifiext.net web address or 192.168.1.250 IP. Remember that, if the web browser you are using is outdated, then also you can’t access the installation assistance page of your Netgear device.

So, what you can do – update the web browser you are using and clear browsing history as well. In addition to that, you must check the EX6110’s web address or the extender’s default IP after entering it.
