What router do you have it connected to?
are you installing it using wps or using the installation wizard?

I am connecting the extender to a Verizon G3100 router. Until yesterday everything was working fine. As I said, I made no known changes to the network. I tried reverting the firmware on the extender and nothing. I am using the Netgear wizard through the extender configuration page on my browser. It detects the 5g and 2.4g networks and connects, setup successfully completed, but still provides no internet connection. I have noticed that after I setup the extender, after two minutes or so the configuration page becomes unavilable, with a timed out connection.
Appreciate any tips.
