To enable or disable the one Wi-Fi name feature on Netgear Wi-Fi extender N300 setup

  • Open a web browser on the mobile device that is connected to the extender’s network.
  • Open the extender login page by entering the www.mywifiext.net in the address bar. If Mywifiext not working, then enter the IP of your Netgear extender.
  • If one Wi-Fi name feature is enabled on your extender, then go through the following steps for different OS:
  1. Windows-based: Mywifiext.
  2. Mac or iOS: Mywifiext.local.
  3. Android devices: Enter the IP address directly into the address bar.
  • The login page will appear.
  • Enter the email address and the password and click the ‘Login’ button.
  • The home page will be displayed where you need to go to the ‘Settings’ followed by ‘Wireless’.
  • If you want to enable the single wi-fi name, then select yes otherwise no. If you are using the feature for the first time, then you have to run the smart setup first.
  • Go to the ‘Status’ page and click on the ‘Smart setup’ option.
  • If you have disabled this feature, then you will have to set the different SSID and password for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency band in the Network credentials field. The Mesh functionality will be disabled under such cases.
