Can't find NETGEAR_EXT
I have a NETGEAR AX1800 Mesh extender, Model: EAX15 I have previously used it in a different apartment without issue, but now when trying to install it in a new home, it wont provide the NETGEAR_...
tried to factory reset numerous times,
I find it a bit awkward to hold the paperclip in that tiny hole when this product is plugged into a wall outlet. My solution has been to plug the extender into an extension cord for the reset process. (I actually do all the setup with WiFi extenders using an extension cord and then plug the extender into a wall outlet when the setup is finished.)
no light starts blinking
Wireless Protected Setup (WPS) has two uses on this product:
- To connect the EAX15 to the host network (page 12), and
- To connect devices to the EAX WiFi (page 19).
