The power light stopped flashing green and the cursor rotated really quickly whilst uploading the file. Which It didn't do during unsuccessful attempts.
After about 3 mins the screen said it had sent the file successfully. And the router appeared to do nothing. I set my Computer's IP address up as automatic and after about 3 minutes the Config screen for the router popped up with the Correct Default IP address of 192.168.1.250.
I've not had any issues since.
Good luck guys
If its popping up with the default of 192.168.1.250, thats the default setup IP address. have you tried navigating to the address to set up the extender?
