EX6250 | AC1750 mesh extender Issues
My EX6250 | AC1750 mesh extender has completely died after just 2 months of use; and of that 2 months it barely worked. Now all the lights are red, the arrows are blue and it won't allow a reset. ...
Have you tried a 30/30/30 reset?
While powered on, push and hold reset for 30 seconds.
Power it off while still holding reset. power off for 30 seconds.
Power it back on while still holding reset and leave it powered on for 30 seconds.
then let off reset.
Also, check the switch on the side. It switches it from ap mode to extender mode. If you hardwire it to your router, it needs to be in access point mode.
You could potentially also try recoverying it via tftp.
are you on windows? if so, follow this guide

just make sure you enable tftp
