Hi, I have an old Wifi Extender at home and I am trying to follow the device's instructions. 

 

However, when the Power LED goes green no wifi network shows up to start the setup. Has this happened to anybody else? Any ideas how to solve it? My router also does not have a WPS button. 

 

Thank you!

  • did you factory reset the extender? Maybe an old ssid is broadcasting. 

    Push and hold reset for 7-15 seconds while its powered on. Then try setup

      Thank you! It turns out I wasn't holding the reset button for long enough
