I have now contacted Customer Services and after many checks they have askd me to return the Extender and then I will get a replacement .
Thanks for your help
I know there is not a problem with my Talk Talk moderm, my pc and tv work fine and my Kindle works when connected to it .The Kindle is a new one and is updated it works perfectly well when NOT connected to the extender.When it is connected to the extender I can get access to my Kindle front page but I am not able to open anything because of the date problem .When I turn the extender off the Kindle.is
fine and date restored as I have previously said .Talk Talk modem is updated and the top of the range .
The Kindle and the extender and modem have all been reset to factory settings .
Don't you think that it is possible that the Extender is at fault ? It has worked perfectly well but now it is not working at all .Could you tell me what a NTP client please ?
Hi chrissiem,
Yes, it is possible that it's a setting with the Extender. We are trying to isolate which device is causing the issue.
Login to mywifiext.net when connected to the Extender's WiFi, then the tab "Setup" < "Wireless Settings" please confirm the security setting on the extender is WPA2. Also set to WPA2 for your router.
Also try testing the different "Wireless mode" settings under the same tab "Setup" < "Wireless Settings" from 300mbps to 54 or 150mbps.
If the problem is still occurring, please contact Support:
