I have tried factory restore several times.&nbsp;Shouldn't I be able to plug a Cat6 cable into ethernet port on device and plug cable into computer and see a connection?

I can and i have that same model.&nbsp;A couple things you can try.1. swap cables or try a different device. maybe its not the extender2. re-install the firmware. a reset only removes settings. if the firmware was corrupt for some reason, a reset doesn't overwrite it.3. downgrade the firmware.4. open a support case if you're still within warranty. maybe the ports bad.&nbsp;
