Hi alsarnotsky,
Welcome to the community!
1. What is the firmware version of the extender?
2. If the client LED is off, that means that there is no device connected to the extender's signal.
3. Is it a WiFi speaker? What model?
4. Is the tablet still able to detect to extender's signal?
5. Are you getting an error? If yes, what is the error?

Hi alsarnotsky,
Thank you for responding.
1. Do you have other wireless devices that can connect to the extender?
2. I believe your tablet is connecting to the speaker via Bluetooth and not via WiFi.

I just tried my LG smartphone and the phone did not find the extender as a source with which to connect. I have not tried other devices. I think the only other device I have is my wife's cell phone. So, at this time neither my cell phone nor my wife's tablet can connect to the extender.
You are correct the tablet is connecting to the speaker via Bluetooth and not via WiFi..
Hi alsarnotsky,
If that is the case, you may want to consider resetting the extender and go through the setup process to make sure that it has been properly configured to connect to your main wireless network. Page 41 of the user manual on this link may help for the reset. This link for the installation guide may also be helpful.
