Trouble connecting extender to wireless broadband modem
I am having trouble connecting my new wireless broadband modem Huawei B628-350 with my netgear extender
I am able to connect via wifi to the extender but the unit continues to give me no internet connection. Any ideas?

Hello!
Your Netgear extender connecting to devices but showing "no internet" with your new Huawei B628-350 modem means the extender isn't getting internet from the modem. This is a common issue. You must re-do the Netgear extender's setup from scratch to re-pair it with the new Huawei modem. Crucially, check your Huawei B628-350's admin settings (usually 192.168.8.1 or 192.168.1.1) for MAC address filtering or access control that might be blocking the extender, and add its MAC address to any allowed lists. Also, ensure your Netgear extender has the latest firmware.
