EX6200 lights flashing and 5g light does not light up
I have a new extender and the lights always seem to flash, not sure if it's not in a good spot in the house? When I set it up I could not get the 5g light to light up.

If the 5GHz does not light up, make sure that the SSID broadcast is not turned off.
Access the admin page of the extender and check it from there.
Otherwise, reset the unit and reconfigure the extender from scratch.

How did you get it to work?
How's the connection on 2.4GHz?
Try to set it up near the router to tell if it's the location or what.
Interference on 5GHz is very rare but see to it that there's no other wireless device that may cause it.

I hooked it up directly to the computer and changed a setting. both setting work well now.
However it still goes off line and flashes i'm wondering if it is to far from the router.
thanks
