Cant connect to extender (AC1900)
It has worked before, but now i cant connect any device to any of the extended-wifies, everything is green. Will only work if i put ethernet cable from router in to it, but i need it for extending my network.

Thx. Lots of folks here have had trouble with that firmware. I suggest that you try downgrading to 1.0.0.66. Then do another reset, and see if that solves it. https://kb.netgear.com/000059563/EX7000-Firmware-Version-1-0-0-66

Did you try resetting the extender and setting it up again?
multiple times
Do you know what firmware you are running?
Can you connect a laptop to the ethernet port? If you can, then try browsing to www.mywifiext.net (which is the extender's web page), and see if that shows the extender connected to the router.
