Wifi dropping out ex6110

Modem: tplink VX220-G2v

I have set up the extender and it works fine for maybe a day, then internet drops out and won't stay connected, even when connected won't load anything. Then I turn off and on my modem and it might work again for 24-48 hours. 

 

Anything I can do?

    Did you set it up using the push button WPS option? 

    If so, factory reset the extender and set it up using the installation assistant.

    To factory reset, push and hold the reset button for 7-15 seconds while powered on. 

    Here's a video of how to use the assistant.

      Hi thanks for your reply plemans. I try and go to mywifiext .net or mywifiext.local (I am using a MacBook) and the page will not load. It just says it's loading. I have tried resetting browser clearing cache and history and it still does the same thing. Any way to help with this?

        You can try a different pc or browser. 

        Did you reset it and its during connection to set it up that you see this?
