The steps for setting up the Netgear EX3700 using WPS are:
- Control on the Netgear wifi range extender setup.
- In the same space, place your Netgear WiFi range extender and WiFi router.
- Plug-in your Netgear extender setup into an electrical power outlet until completed.
- Click the WPS button on the rear of the range extender.
- Wait a few minutes and let your range extender and router have a good link.
Note: If the 5 GHz bandwidth is supported by your current WiFi router, your Netgear EX3700 extender might attempt to connect to the 5 GHz bandwidth of your WiFi router, first pressing the WPS button. If your EX3700 Extender Setup does not work for the very first time with your existing WiFi router, during the Netgear EX3700 Setup, it will cause several problems.
Place your Netgear EX3700 extender in a new spot, but make sure your range extender is in your WiFi router’s network coverage region. Try connecting the extended WiFi network to your laptop or smartphone.That is how you can use the WPS button to complete your Netgear WiFi extender setup.
