  • Make sure you're placing the extender within range of the Nighthawk router and avoid interference. Reset the extender and try the setup again from scratch. Update the extender's firmware to the latest version for compatibility. Double-check your WiFi network credentials (SSID and password) during setup. Temporarily disable any VPN or proxy connections on your devices. If possible, try setting up the extender with a different device (e.g., smartphone or laptop). If issues persist, contact Netgear support for further assistance.
