You must go to a wifi spot. Some bookstores, some fast food places, some libraries are hotspots. You can also buy devices which tell you if a wifi hotspot is nearby and usable. Try Wendy's, McDonald's, or Barnes and Noble.

This device can only connect to your existing network over wifi. It clearly says that in the manual. I had to return mine assuming that this device would have an access point mode, but after 45 minutes on a chat with support they confirmed it could not. If you want an access point from Netgear you need to buy a router and turn it into access point mode.

The signal here is shot down to our mobile home from the main house because we are not high enough to get internet signal. We do haves router here and it is used to get a signal on multiple devices such as our iPads and computers, and phones. . I hope this is what you want to know.

I figured out what my problem was, I had to disable the firewall off my router and then it was able to connect. I enabled the firewall back again once I was connected and I haven't had any problems so far, but I haven't turned off the player yet, so it might do it again. But at least now I know what the problem is and how to fix it.

This problem is still ongoing. Sometimes the thing will connect to our home network but have no internet access. Any suggestions?

First of all this device allows you to connect a non-WiFi computer to a WiFi network. It is an after-market device that allows the WiFi connection. WiFi in your home is another topic altogether. You need to have an internet connection either through telephone lines, such as dial-up or DSL, or cable, such as Cox, or satellite, such as Wildblue or HughsNet. WiFi in your home is a communication system that can be setup with a Windows system or a Mac system. The WiFi system is called a network. First get the internet into your home, then set up the home network, then if you need it, modify your computer with the device you were inquiring about. Sounds like you may need some hands on help getting this set up. As easy as the computer folks say it is, it is not easy when you don't know where to start. Good luck. Some hands on help will get you understanding this stuff in time.

You need to download the app. If you already did you need to make sure that you have "port forwarding " set up on your router.

If you have 2 routers on the same network you should disable DHCP on one of the routers. Keep the DHCP enabled on the primary router that way you don't have 2 routers providing IP Addresses which they will conflict not allowing you to connect to the internet. Hope this helps

I actually have my router on the far end of the house. I don't have any issues whatsoever in the house and get full through put of my speed. I have had it several months now and LOVE it. Best router I have ever had. As I said....range has not been an issue and in fact my neighbor has complained that he gets a better signal from my wi-fi than his own in his house. LOL. Hope that helps.

Good question. Well it has to be connected to a modem or router that's connected to the Internet Mary.

I'm sorry I can not help you. I had the same problem with wifi. I would get it to connect for a short time and then it wouldn't. I ended up putting it in a bedroom near router and not bothering with it. Bought a LG bluray player that has no problems connecting. I also put an wifi extender in the living room

haahaha ask your neighbor, if your own wifi, then you could always run the wifi setup on the router, or buy a router......then setup, or just remove the passoword if you live in rural setting

This is an access point only. It does not route or NAT. It needs to be behind a router/firewall of some kind. It only bridges wifi devices to an existing network.

When connected to my DSL line, it would not connect. I contacted AT&T; and was told by the tech representative that this is NOT an AT&T; supported item. I still have not connected to the internet with it and its 3 days later. I am still trying to connect.

I'm so "dumb" about computer stuff....but I would like to know what do I need to have internet when I am visiting,etc. Is there a portable device that would allow me to have access,regardless where I was???

Sorry for the delay. Have you been able to connect? My wife hit connect and typed in password and it connected right to our router.Let me know if you are still having issues and I will check to see exactly what she did. Thanks
