My Netgear extender says unable to connect when I start my computer. My router is downstairs with my main computer and I have an office computer upstairs. I have an extender to give a good signal ups...

Details help.
- what extender do you have?
- what firmware is on it?
- what router is it connected to?
- What method of setup did you use? (the app, WPS, the installation assistant)
- Is t his a new setup or have you had it for a while?
