Learn about AT&T Smart Wi-Fi Extenders

Tired of Wi-Fi® dead zones? An AT&T Smart Wi-Fi Extender connects to your Wi-Fi gateway. It creates a mesh network that extends your Wi-Fi signal to more areas of your home. This lets you stream music and videos with less buffering, use more devices, and reach locations you couldn’t before.

Our newest extender, the AirTies 4971, uses the latest 802.11ax technology standard, also known as Wi-Fi 6. It operates in 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz ranges. This helps improve Wi-Fi performance and extends coverage in your home.

Your Wi-Fi gateway and AT&T Smart Wi-Fi Extender use the same network info. That means you connect a tablet, smartphone, or laptop to the extender the same way you connect to your Wi-Fi network. Just enter your Wi-Fi network name and password. 

You can also connect other devices, like smart TVs, media players, and gaming systems, to the extender using an Ethernet cable.
