NETGEAR EX6250 AC1750 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Mesh Extender

The NETGEAR EX6250-100NAS is a Wi-Fi mesh extender that removes dead zones by capturing the signal from your existing router and expanding it to the farthest corners of your home. It is an easy way to keep phones, tablets, laptops, and smart home gear online in bedrooms, basements, or out on the patio.

Dual-band technology delivers a combined speed of up to 1750 Mbps, so a family can stream 4K movies, play competitive games, and join video calls without competing for bandwidth. MU-MIMO support allows several devices to receive data at the same time, which keeps performance steady when everyone is online.

Setup is straightforward with the free Nighthawk app. Plug the extender into a wall outlet, follow the on-screen prompts, and the unit adopts your router’s network name, creating a seamless mesh environment. Smart roaming automatically shifts each device to the strongest available signal as you move through the house.

A Gigabit Ethernet port is available for equipment that benefits from a wired link, such as smart TVs, game consoles, or a desktop PC. The extender also uses 128-bit AES encryption to help safeguard your network traffic.

Whether you share a busy household, work from a home office, or simply want consistent Wi-Fi in every room, the EX6250 offers a practical solution without requiring a new router.
