How can I add the existing WiFi from AP to my original used from Fritzbox?

Julian_123

I want to use the AP to expand my WiFi from Fritz Box.

Actually I have to 2 different WiFi Networks but I want to use as one.

Fritzbox and AP by Zyxel are already connected via Ethernet.

NWA50 AX Pro I use and Fritzbox 7590 AB

Thank you for Support

Hello @Julian_123

You can connect NWA50AX Pro to Fritzbox's LAN port, then configure the same SSID name and security method on these two devices. This ensures that both devices will broadcast the same network name.

By using the same SSID and security settings, your devices will allow for seamless roaming, meaning you can move between the coverage areas of the Fritzbox and NWA50AX Pro without losing connection.

Depending on your setup, you may need to configure the AP via Standalone mode or Nebula mode. Please refer to the respective guides for detailed instructions:
