Does the Linksys range extender need to be professionally set up?

Users can typically set up Linksys Wi-Fi range extenders without the help of a professional. Linksys offers tutorials and answers to frequently asked questions about its range extenders through the support features at Linksys.com.

Wi-Fi range extenders help extend the range of an existing Wi-Fi network by repeating the signal of the network's router into areas that the signal does not normally reach due to distance or interference. Most Linksys range extenders include a setup CD that walks users through the configuration of the new equipment and includes additional information such as product manuals and troubleshooting guides for the product.
