Hello. My setup has a Linksys router linked to the modem, with two extension devices connected via a switch—one for a Linksys and another for a Netgear. Since I can't reach the individual router settings, I need to combine them manually. You can merge them by using a single router that supports multiple connections or by configuring the switches to share the network properly.

You'll likely go to the management interface, adjust the SSID to match for a smoother connection. For stronger Wi-Fi, consider using a wired setup rather than extenders, and opt for devices from the same network. A mesh system could also improve coverage.

It seems you're referring to additional networking devices connected to your main Linksys router. These could be wireless extenders or DHCP servers that help manage connectivity. The term "extenders" likely means devices that boost signal range or provide more network points, but they should be added carefully to avoid conflicts.

I’m using the primary router in a single room, then switching to the switch, and finally connecting to two additional routers throughout the house with distinct names. It seems like this setup could be optimized for better performance or organization.
