Smart Wizard FAQs

When I connect to the network, Smart Wizard keeps asking me for my passphrase, and 

I am sure I entered the correct passphrase. What can I do?

It is very likely that the extender is placed at the borderline of the range covered by the 
router. See 

I got an error message in the Review Settings screen in the Smart Wizard. What should I 

do?

Make sure that your computer is connected to the extender by using the SSID and the 
passphrase that you have just set up, and clicking the Refresh button in your browser. 
This will return you to the Smart Wizard.

I connected to NETGEAR_EXT and launched a browser, but I cannot see the Smart Wizard. 

Why not?

First, make sure that your computer is set up to use DHCP. Second, make sure the 
Wireless Device to Extender LED is green. Finally, relaunch the browser and enter 
www.mywifiext.net

. Check to make sure that your computer has an IP address in the IP 

Address screen (see 

19).

Connecting to http://www.mywifiext.net

If you have trouble connecting, try to locate the source of the problem:

10.

If your browser displays an error page, make sure that you include http:// when you type 

this URL in the address field of your Internet browser. If you leave it out, you might not be 
able to connect.

The extender LEDs can help you tell if the extender is correctly set up and working as it 

should.

The best performance is delivered when Link Rate LED 

 or 

 and the 

Wireless Device to Extender LED 

 

are green.

A workable performance is delivered when the Link Rate LED LED 

 or 

 is 

amber and the Wireless Device to Extender LED 

 

is green.

If you cannot get a wireless connection working, you can use an Ethernet cable to 
connect your computer to the extender. See
