EX6150v2 - Client LED - Losing Wireless Connectivity

I have an EX6150v2 Range Extender, in extender mode paired up to an Arris (Motorola) Wireless Cable Modem. I have setup the range extender according to the instructions (extending both the 2.4G and 5G bands).

Initially it seems to work and both extended networks appear to work fine - but after about a half hour, they are still visible to my devices (Windows laptop, Apple TV and iPhone), but no longer connect to the internet, and the Client LED light is dark.

 

I have tried repositioning the extender to be closer to the router - but it still doesn't work after a short period. At this point my extender is less than 10 feet from the router in clear line of sight.

 

Any suggestions?

    Hello bmcquillan

    Have you tried to add the mac address to the white list of the router?
