Oct 12, 2018Hello,
I'm having the same as hbterrell. I'm trying to set up an EX3700 as an access point. I have a Zyxel 3415 router and a Dell 3558 laptop running Windows 10. I can WiFi the laptop into the 3700 from the Available Networks, but when connected to NETGEAR_EXT, it shows as "no internet." The troubleshooter in Windows suggested I do a "Networking Reset" which I did. After a reboot, still no internet, but now the troubleshooter gives me "Windows could not automatically detect the network's proxy settings."
I've confirmed that internet is available from the router by running ethernet straight to my laptop (same cable and router port I'm using for the 3700). Suspecting that the ethernet port on the 3700 might be bad, I ran the ethernet cable from the 3700 straight to the laptop, but WAS able to get to mywifiext.net. So I am now flummoxed. Any suggestions appreciated.
