Ex3700 Wifi Extender

Hello Community, Device light on my extender is intermittent (every 5 - 10 minutes) but the router, power and wps lights are all green. Can someone please suggest what I can do to fix

The device light is on when devices are connected to it. 

Is there an issue with it?

    Yes, the light is intermittent, it goes in and out every 5 to 10 minutes

      the light going on/off isn't an issue. It means a device is connected and then not anymore. 

      What issue are you actually having?

        The issue that I am actually having, is trying to find out why the devices are not staying connected continuously. Example my ring security doorbell is not staying connected to the extender which means I am not able to effectively use that device. Can you please tell me why you think the devices are not staying connected continuously.
        Please respond

        Thanks
