EX7000 and EX8000 wired connection but no connection
I have a EX7000|AC1900 wifi extender that I bought 2 years ago with old firmware, it used to never disconnects but now it does at least 2-3 times a day. Only the ethernet connection disconnects, but ...
Could be specific to the installation location, a master router wireless thing, massive interference by other WLAN and free band frequency users, ....
Worth is using the current firmware, whereas the "new" 1.0.1.78 Mesh-Feature-Version (out for 10 months!) is cumbersome, I suggest to update yours to EX7000 Firmware Version 1.0.0.66.
Extender or AP mode?
Extender in FastLane or normal dual-band?
What does the EX7000 status page show - screenshots please ...
- while connected?
- when connection to the Internet is lost?
What are the front panel LED showing, specifically (top-down)
- 2.4 GHz Link Rate LED
- 5 GHz Link Rate LED
- Device to Extender LED
i've tried it where other ethernet wires aren't connect to the extender besides my desktop and where no one else is connected to the wifi made by the extender.
How do i downgrade the firmware to EX7000 Firmware Version 1.0.0.66.
And it's in extender mode. It's in normal dual-band. I don't really understand fastlane, and AP is just when I connect it to the main router to extend the wifi signal right?
the LED shows all the lights connected. i'm not sure about the status page..
