I've searched the forums and see where this solution is talked about but can't find where it says how to actually do it. I have the Actiontech model that Verizon is currently selling. I can log into the settings for my primary router, but can't figure out how to log into the extender. I just can't figure out how to make this change so that it is its own SSID and isn't trying to extend.
If we are in the basement we can just switch the basement wifi network if necessary. I thought an easy solution would be to set up the basement extender as its own network and not as an extension of the primary network. The extender allowed me to hardwire some devices as well via ethernet. Additionally, make sure the booster is compatible with your Verizon Fios network and supports the latest wireless standards, such as 802.11ac. The signal from extender in the basement only needs to be used when in that area, which isn't that frequent. A range extender will simply amplify the signal from your existing router, while a mesh network system will create a new network with multiple access points for more comprehensive coverage. However, the problem I'm having is that our Mac laptop doesn't seem to let go of the basement signal when it should be using the living room signal and this results in my wife having slow internet on her computer. We have another extender that is upstairs and far enough from the primary that it is clear which network you are on. I added a second fios network extender to my basement as I wasn't getting a strong signal from the primary router in our living area.
