Due to its minimal setup requirements, WPS is the simplest setup technique for Linksys extenders out there. The only prerequisite for using this linksys extender setup to successfully connect to the extender is an existing router that is WPS compatible. If you have it, go ahead and set up your Linksys extender quickly by following the steps below. Once the devices are closer to one another, use the same WPS buttons on both of them. Hold them down until you notice the panels' lights flickering, then release them and wait for the process to be finished. When the extender is linked to the router, reliable and bright LEDs will indicate this shortly.
