So when it’s plugged in all the lights are on, all green, as expected if it was working!
I haven’t tried using a PC as of yet, as the only device I own is a work laptop, would you recommend that? With the Ethernet cable plugged in to my PS4, it still wasn’t working!

It might need to be re-installed using the manual method.
It tends to go better connecting to it via ethernet for setup. Your work laptop would work fine
- SamuelbrodySep 18, 2020AspirantOK perfect I will give that a go and get back to the thread with an update.
Is there a guide on manual set up available on this website?- plemansSep 18, 2020Guru - Experienced User

- SamuelbrodySep 18, 2020AspirantOK so I plugged in the Ethernet cable to the extender and my laptop, I have recently moved properties so it shows up as a wired connection as (My previous internet) with EX2 on the end, and also the one I have been using for a little while at this property shows up via WIFI but provides no connection.
Therefore obviously I cannot progress and sign in on the website given to sign in (for some reason I’m not permitted to type the website out?) on the laptop as I cannot connect to any WIFI associated with the extender.
Any advice on this?
