Canged providers WN300RPv3

I have changed internet providers and I can't get the extender to work.  I've reset many times too. 
please help.  Now the green light will  blink , I push the WPS button on the router and then the blinking button just stops.  No other lights are on except for the power.  Very disappointed!

    Just need to connect it to the extender then go to www.mywifiext.net in a web browser then it should let you manually connect the extender to the router.

    Hello casey1992

     

    Bring the extender into the same room as the new router hold down the reset button for 10 seconds or longer to make sure it has done a factory reset. Then try to do the setup again.

      Thank you for trying to help.  I did press the button for at least 10 sec. Then  I followed the instructions by pressing the WPS button on the extender and then on my router.  The button on the extender blinked for a while then nothing.

        Hello Casey1992

         

        Have you tried to use the manual setup by connecting to the extenders wireless then going to www.mywifiext.net and then go through the setup wizard.
