AC750 WiFi range extender, model EX6100v2
I can't get the extender to recognize my router. The router link led shows no connection. Worked fine for 2 years, but stymied now. Tried reset factory settings and reconnecting, but no connection.

"...see if disabling SON helps by logging into router at myfiosgateway.com and go to Wireless Settings/Advanced Security Settings/ Other Advanced Wireless Options/Self-Organizing Network Enabled and set to Off"
Worked for me.
I have a Verizon Fios router. No problems with other devices (ipad, iphone). I tried both WPS and Netgear installation assistant, but no connection between extender and router.
