Install error reset "1"

I have an N300 wifi extender. It's was working but recently I couldn't connect to it. I tried the install assistant and got 'reset' ("1"). Did a factory reset. Tried again to connect thru the browser same error. Tried WPS install, same problem. Don't know what else to try.
  • I will accept but still baffled why it doesn't work using my phone. Thanks.

    1. what N300 device do you have? n300 is a speed, not a model 

    2. what firmware is on it? 

    3. what is giving you that error? Do you have a screen snip of it? 

    4. what router are you connecting it to?

        Take a screensnip of it. 

        Is the extender disconnected from everything? 
        Did you hit the wps button at any point? (if so factory reset it)
