EX6150 extender will not allow devices to connect to internet
I'm unable to have computer devices connect through the EX6150 wifi extender. I can see that I'm connected to our wifi through the extender but can't access the internet. I did a factory reset and ...
the EX6150 is a mesh extender. meaning that if you re-installed it and didn't disable that feature, it won't show up as a separate network.It'll have the same ssid as your primary and allows devices to roam between it and the router as needed.
That'd be why it isn't showing as separate. You can log into the router and get the IP address for the extender and use that to log into it and see if anything is connected (or look at the led on it)
