    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.

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.
