  2. Broadcasting same WiFi Network Name

    Hello All,

    I have UVerse with AT&T. The Uverse Residential Gateway (fancy word for Router) is installed in my office. The Gateway has ports for ethernet and also provides WiFi. My living room is on the opposite side of the house and the WiFi was not good so I ran an ethernet cable through the ceiling and I placed a Netgear Nighthawk EX7000. The Netgear is acting as an Access Point whereby it provides WiFi access to devices in my living room. I also connect my TV, Receiver and Sonos to the ethernet ports on the Netgear.

    The Netgear broadcasts a WiFi network as does the Uverse Gateway. As I move between the office and the living room, I manually switch from the Uverse Gateway WiFi to the Netgear WiFi. Is there a way to get around this? Can I set up the Netgear to broadcast the same WiFi network as the Uverse Gateway so I don't have to change WiFi networks as I move around the house?

    Thanks, Bill

    As another question.....

    In the documentation for the Netgear, I just found the following:

    Note: In access point mode, you can connect your computer or WiFi device to the extender only using a WiFi connection.

    To me this means that I cannot connect wired devices to the Netgear when it is in Access Point mode which it is. As I said, I am connecting my TV, Receiver and SONOS to ethernet ports on the Netgear. The setup works but according to the documentation it should not or am mis-interpreting the documentation?

    Hi ToddBrooks,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    Could you please help me with the below questions:

    • How are you broadcasting?
    • Are you receiving any error code along with the error message?
    • Which version of Windows you are using? (To check, type: winver in start menu and hit enter.)

    You can check if the Broadcast option is enabled under Settings. To do so, follow the steps mentioned below:

    1. Click on the Settings icon from the start menu.
    2. Click on Gaming > Click on
      Game bar.
    3. In the right pane, turn on the slider under “Record game clips, screenshots, and broadcast using Game bar”.

    I suggest you to follow the troubleshooting steps mentioned in the Microsoft article on ‘Why
    can't I broadcast my game?
    andplease provide a screenshot of the window, so that we can have a better understanding on this issue. Follow the steps mentioned in the
    screenshot

    Hi Barbara

    Set the connection to Private network:

    Go to Network and Internet

    On the left, select the appropriate connection - WiFI or Wired

    Select the name of your network on the right side

    Click the switch for “Find devices and content” to turn it on and make this connection “Private”.

    Close the Settings App

    Allow Sonos through the firewall:

    On the left, click 'Allow an app or feature through Windows Firewall

    Click 'Change Settings'

    Make sure that the Sonos Controller is listed and allowed for “Private” networks.

    If you do not see Sonos listed, click 'Allow another app' and browse to the Sonos application.
