EX6400v3 extender
I can't connect my extender to Channel 2.4 GHz. I've had it for 2-3 years and started having problems with it in the last few months. I have done a factory reset several times and reconnect to severa...
I have an ATT provided modem/router that they installed with my new fiber optic service. The software version of the extender is V1.0.3.32. I have used the WPS setup and its worked in the past. Neither channels stay connected. There are 4 lights and only the first 3 stay lit. Occasionally, all 4 are lit up. Number 1 is power, 2 is WPS, 3 is router link, and 4 is client link. It is 4 that stays off. Hope this helps, I am not very savvy at these electronic devices.
When setup with WPS, the EX6400 sets up in mesh mode as its a mesh extender. What that means is it uses the same ssid/password as the main router. And devices roam between it (EX6400) and the router as needed based on their own roaming protocol. Thats why your led 4 (device) light only comes on sometimes. That'd be when devices choose to roam to it.
You can disable that and set it with its own ssid if you'd prefer.
Well, that may help. Thanks
