My extender will not boot up past: Amber, Blue, Blue, Amber; then power is Amber and WPS is green. Will not change, will not reset, will not let me connect local or ethernet.. What can I do? Expert t...
Router Link LED: Amber
Router Arrow LED: Blue
Client Arrow LED: Blue
Client Link LED: Amber
Power LED: Amber
WPS LED: Green
My one year warranty expired in April. Device is registered.
I spoke with Netgear Support and they instructed me to power off all devices for 2-5 minutes then hold reset on extender for 90 seconds. I have done this repeatedly with no success. Same LED's as listed above all come on immediately after powering on and do not change or flash when attempting to reset.
Any and all help is appreciated!

Unfortunately, I am using a MacBook. I appreciate the tips. Thanks
here's the write up for a mac. they did it to a R7000 but it should be the same for your ex6400
