Trying to connect range extender to a netgear modem router (model D2200D) - wifi extender powers on, searches for the modem router and I push the WPS button on the modem router. WPS LED blinks faster on the wifi extender and then nothing - no connection. Ideas?

Hi Phacops, Welcome to the community! You can try manually setting up the extender as described on page 8 of the installation guide on this link. Regards, Dexter Community Team

    Hi Dexter,
    
    I did set it up manually and funny enough when I check my connection on my computer it does say that I am gettting signals from the range extender and that is how I am connected to the internet. The weird thing is that the client link LED is still red - the others are green (router link LED, the power LED, and the WPS LED.
