Lost router connection
Had everything all setup and all green lights. Now all lights are green except the router light, which is blank. What has happened?
What extender model do you have?
Did you try connecting to the wifi network, and browsing to www.mywifiext.net ?
No, I have not tried browsing to www.mywifiext.net. Didn't need to do that at the original setup. Worked great for about a week and then lost the router connection, and cannot get it back.

Well, try it now. If my.wifiext.net shows no wifi connection to your router, then you can try re-joining the router network from the web ui.
Web ui?

Read the manual. If you can't find it, then please reply to my earlier question on what extender model you have, and I can point you to the manual.
Overall - the web user interface is used to configure your extender, upgrade it's firmware, etc. That's similar to the web interface used to configure your router.
