How Do I Reset My Netgear Wifi Extender?

 Resetting Netgear wifi extender involves returning it to its factory preset settings. The reset button on the wifi extender, which is normally found on the back or bottom of the device, is used to accomplish this.
The device will wipe all settings and data, including the password, when the reset button is pressed and held down for a predetermined amount of time, and reboot to its default condition. Using a web browser, you may also reset your Netgear wifi extender.


To reset your Netgear WiFi extender, you can follow these steps:

  1. Locate the Reset button on your Netgear WiFi extender. It is usually a small hole or button labeled "Reset" and is typically located on the back or bottom of the device.

  2. Using a paperclip or a small, pointed object, press and hold the Reset button for about 10 seconds. You may need to use some force to press the button.

  3. Release the Reset button after 10 seconds. The extender will reboot and reset to its factory default settings.

  4. Wait for the extender to finish rebooting. This process may take a few minutes.

  5. Once the reset is complete, the WiFi extender will be restored to its original factory settings, including the default network name (SSID) and password.

  6. You can now reconnect to the extender using the default WiFi network name and password. These details are usually printed on a sticker on the device or provided in the user manual.

Note: Resetting your Netgear WiFi extender will erase any custom configurations you have made, including changes to the network name, password, and other settings. After the reset, you will need to reconfigure the extender according to your preferences.
