Questions and answers
how do i connect directly to satellite wifi mesh routers to turn them into access points.
The setup process for the NETGEAR Nighthawk Mesh WiFi 6 System involves syncing the satellite routers with the main router. Follow these steps:
1. Sync the Satellite: Ensure your satellite router is powered on and within range of the main router. The router should automatically detect and sync with the satellite.
2. Use the App: Follow the instructions on the NETGEAR app to complete the setup.
3. Personalize Settings: Use your existing Wi-Fi network name and password for seamless device connection.
4. Firmware Update: If a new firmware version is available, update it to ensure the latest security and performance improvements.
5. Placement: Position satellites halfway between the main router and areas with weak Wi-Fi signals to optimize coverage.
If you need the system to work as access points, additional configuration may be required. Contact NETGEAR support for guidance on setting up the system in access point mode.
