are easy for you to find from your computer, tablet, or smartphone. You can turn off the SSID
broadcast to create a hidden WiFi network. To connect to a hidden network you must know
its SSID and password and manually enter them.

1. On a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the extender network, launch a web
browser
.

, enter www.mywifiext.net.
