Abstract

The disclosure discloses a network system, a wireless network extender, and a network provider. The network system includes a network provider, a wireless network router, and a wireless network extender. The wireless network extender includes a communication unit and an extension unit. The wireless network extender connects to the wireless network router through a first communication channel provided by the communication unit and communicates with the network provider through the wireless network router, or communicates with the network provider through a second communication channel provided by the extension unit. When the first communication channel is unavailable, the wireless network extender connects to the network provider through the second communication channel. The first communication channel and the second communication channel use different communication protocols. The disclosure can provide a mesh network with a redundancy mechanism for diagnosis/management using different communication protocols.
