AC1750 Mesh Extender and Telstra Smart Modem
Hi Based in Australia and have just received our new Telstra Smart Modem but I am having no luck trying to connect my AC1750 WI FI Mesh extender. Extender worked perfectly with the previous modem...
Apologies for the late reply - wanted to let you know that your solution worked.
Thanks for your help.

glad it worked!
Hi
Are there any tips or tricks if we want to have mote than one mesh extender in the house? I bought one but had no luck getting it connected.
are you daisy chaining?
daisy chain: router----->extender------>extender
or setting up as a star configuration
star: extender<------router------>extender
I'd recommend star.
Tip for help setting up is shut off the 1st extender that is already setup.
Fairly sure i am doing the star as I am trying to connect to the telstra modem direct.
The extender does not seem to recognize the modem at all.
Should I try connecting the extender to a laptop and connecting that way?.
