AC750 Model EX6100v2 Will not connect to routor
Help Please, Just got home after 6 months away and my AC750 EX6100v2 will not connect to the router. I left my router from Frontier running but I shut off the AC750 wifi extender because I was no...
and what color is that power light?
The power light is a steady green.
If the power light is a steady green and you connect a pc/laptop to the extender via ethernet (disabled the pc/laptops wireless), are you able to attempt setup or get an active connection (won't have internet)
If I connect my laptop to the extender via ethernet with the laptops wireless disabled, I cannot attempt the set up but my laptop does say that there is an active connection to the extender. The extender light stays dark and it says that there is no internet but I am connected to the extender.
Are you able to ping the extender?
ping it at 192.168.1.250
You can try recoving it with tftp or nmrpflash.
are you on windows? if so, follow this guide

just make sure you enable tftp

and here's a video walk through using a tftp client. Use the built in one for windows 10 though. the video is more of an example of how its done.
