Week signal AC1200 EX 6120 Wifi Extener
I've had poor signal in a room of my house that's normally fine since I added the extender a couple years ago. I decided to unplug it and plug it back in to see if that helps but it did not. When I...
Poor signal in that it will not load movies from netflix, or other movie channels nor will it load news broadcasts in that room. A couple rooms are slower but this one is farther from the unit. I've unplugged it and plugged back in no help. As I recall I had a four green lights but now only have 3. Not sure if there was a light on for WPS or if it was the one below it but there are no lights on there now just Power, Router and device are lit up. Once I installed the booster a couple years ago I've had great reception in all rooms and on patios. Now its back to being as bad as it was before installation.

Starla.
Thanks for responding. There's a whole bunch more questions that need answers to help you. If you're car wasn't running right you wouldn't tell the mechanic over the phone that its slow and when he asks for more details only say "it doesn't hit full speed". we need details as we aren't there to look at your setup or whats going on. Look back at the prior comment from me and try and help us to help you.
thanks
My router is a Umbiquity. according to my service provider I'm getting Download 6.0 mbps Upload 3.7 Mbps Latency 33.81.
My home inside is wood frame. The extender is about 35 feet from the router but it's been in this position since I bought it a couple years ago with NO problems.
The WPS light is not on and as I recall its always been on (could be wrong) is this indicating a problem? Sorry my knowledge on this stuff is minimum.
