Problems X6s wifi extender connection
Hello, I have recently set up the X6S extender to my nighthawk router following netgears youtube video and it says it's all connected. Alot of the time I move around now I'm getting connection problems where my wifi symbol come up with ! Saying that I'm connected but no internet. I usually have to turn my wifi on an off to get this to stop but happens again not long after. I have reset and done the set up process a few times any further help would be great???? Thank you from the UK.

If you have brick and steel interior walls, thats going to be an issue for you. They both are the 2 best blockers of wifi signals. You might want to check into powerline, moca adapters, or runner ethernet lines.
