WEB7200 WiFi 6 Repeater

Introduction

The Actiontec WEB7200 is a wireless network extender with dual concurrent radios supporting both
2.4GHz and 5GHz operation in 802.11ax. This allows the Extender to connect to everything from legacy
wireless laptops, computers, and gaming platforms, up to the most current (and future) Apple and
Android tablets, laptops, media platforms, and smartphones.
The Extender works by being placed in a central location of the home, or in a location where the existing
wireless signal is weak, and then physically connected directly to your gateway/modem.
This physical connection not only extends the Wi-Fi signal.
If you would like to use the same Wi-Fi Network Name and Password as your Wi-Fi Router, you can sync
them using the WPS buttons on the Router and the Extender. As a result, the Wireless Network Extender
will take your router's current Wi-Fi network name.
The Wi-Fi password for both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi extender networks will be the same as your
existing Wi-Fi router.
For users with newer mobile devices, tablets, and laptops, connections through the 5GHz radio can
markedly increase the performance and speed of your WiFi connection, while freeing up the 2.4GHz
band for legacy or older devices.
