AC 750 Extender as access point
Hi,
Forgive my incompetence!
I have a bit of a weak area in terms of wifi in my kitchen and want to improve it. We had our house re-wired recently and when that was going on I had Cat 6 cable put in to try and solve future wifi problems. Net result is that I have an ethernet port in the kitchen which runs back to the main router (Sky). I thought in my ignorance I could buy a range extender which had access point mode to solve my issues. In some ways it has, but not in the way I would like. I have been through the set-up with Tether app and the Extender is in Access Point mode. However I now have two wifi networks showing up on my devices (phone), one of which has the _EXT extension which is the extender. Although I can happily connect to it manually and have good internet access this presents a problem. That is that the main reason for getting this was to improve the connection for my Sonos system which needs all speakers on the same wifi connection. So having this extra network is no good to me as other rooms with Sonos are on the existing network.
Basically what I want to do is set up the extender/access point to broadcast my existing wifi without any other networks. That way all Sonos products should have good connection, all on the same network.
If anyone could help me with the steps to do this I would be very grateful. I have tried looking at threads etc but cannot find a solution.
Thanks again
