A7000 has no IP address

I'm having a problem with connections to the internet. IPCONFIG does not show an IP address for the A7000. I am going to try a solution I saw in the community.

    Is your extender in your house or in your garage?

    If the signal in your garage is to weak and your extender is plugged in there, it doesn't matter how great its broadcasting as it can't connect back to the router decent.  That connection from your extender to your router is the important one. 

    You won't get an IP address for your A7000 if the extender doesn't have one to give out (it gets them from the router).
