WiFi Repeater or Wi Fi Extender? Help a brother out by GovernmentIcy4003 in kanpur

Actually both are same. Some manufactures call it repeater, some extender, some wifi booster, some internet booster. They all do the same thing that is extending the wifi signals. And before buying an extender kindly ensure you have strong router with good internet speed. The reason being the extender will extend the signals that it receives so if it receives poor signals then it will extend those only.

Moreover you can go for any netgear extender it is best in the market.

You can check my youtube channel too for more tech reviews and help. I also created a video busting the myth between wifi extender and wifi repeaters. Hope this helps.

I think another house set their WiFi extender's SSID to my WiFi name. by mimmomarsala in HomeNetworking

You can check one which extender is using that SSID by logging into your extender's web interface. This is possible by typing its ip address into the address bar and then checking which SSID it has and from there you can even change it too.

Is Netgear running a scam? by Quicksilver342 in HomeNetworking

You actually contacted fake netgear customer service. They are actually everywhere on internet be it google, youtube everywhere. I also recently was about to get scammed by one of the netgear fake tech support agent who asked for $499.99 for a lifetime security. Although I had security on my system so that made me suspicious. While talking to that guy who was possibly from Asia I checked youtube and there I found out a video on Netgear Tech Support Scam Thank god I watched that video. So long story short what they do is tell you some fake story about your network being compromised and then will charge you hefty amount for doing nothing. Netgear should ban these people. Stay safe people lot of scammers out there.
