trying to connect this extender to fritzbox router. have reset it many times but router is not showing the extender. Any ideas?
No one said you're the first person to have this issue.
but if you've done the following:
Tried setup hardwired in
tried after a factory reset
tried after re-installing firmware (in case its corrupted, a reset only removes settings)
Tried setup when the other extender was off
then you're running low on options.
I'll try firmware upgrade...after that, I think you're correct, it may be past its sell-by-date
Not sure how I can do it if I can't connect it to wifi as I don't have ethernet connection on my laptop? Any help or suggestions appreciated.
you can manually download the firmware to a pc/laptop.
then hardwire into the device and you can manually install the firmware.
the manual walks you through it.
to get the firmware and manual go to
netgear.com/support/ and type in your model.
