Here, we will discuss
how to take backup and restore the settings of the Netgear Extender. The backup
file is used when you want to reset your router but wants to have the same
settings as you have at present. So, to escape from doing the settings again,
make a backup file and save it on your computer. You can restore the same
backup file after resetting your router by accessing mywifiext.net.
To make the backup
file, follow the steps given below.
1. Access Netgear Genie for your router model.
To do this, access mywifiext.net by typing the same web address in the address
bar of the browser window.
2. Login to the BASIC home page by entering the
username and password in the given respective fields.
3. Open the other settings page from this
window. Click on the settings that you will see on the left menu of the page.
4. Go to other and then other settings.
5. You will see a backup button in this page.
Click on the button and the file will get stored on your device (computer).
6. After you have done the reset by which all
the settings went to factory default settings. Now, to make as they were
before, follow the steps from seventh on wards.
7. Open the same other settings page by
opening the BASIC home page of your extender. A restore option is available
where you will see a browse button.
8. Click on the browse button and select the
backup file that you have stored before on your computer.
9. Press the restore button with the help of
mouse to restore the same settings as they were before.
10. It will take confirmation to delete the
default settings and apply the settings stored in the backup file. And reboot
your Netgear extender.
Netgear extenders are
very reliable. You can install them very easily through their web based
interface. The future Netgear extenders come with more technology. You need
extenders only when your router’s signal is unable to reach some of the corners
of your home or office. To enjoy the internet access at every corner, you need
to put the extender at an optimal position. Make sure the Fast Lane technology
is enabled if your extender supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, bands.
The hardware specs of
the Netgear extenders are also good. You will have less complaint or no
complaint about the hardware part. I think Netgear extenders work well in case
you want to extend the range of router’s signal. Do not get late in purchasing
the one for your home.
While saving the backup
file, you may get issues while accessing mywifiext.net. The reason for this can
be any like the internet connection is not there. So to resolve these kinds of
issues, our team is here for you. We will be happy to serve you for all your
