Wifi Extended EX2800 Not working
My wifi extender for some reason is not work. I have tried to factory reset and that hasn’t worked. My modem is working just fine but for some reason this one just is unusually slow and unusually not working. I haven’t had any problems before this and for some reason cannot connect to the extenders inner system

what router is it connecting to?
What are the led's on it doing?
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.

If you connected via wps, try logging into the router and finding the extenders IP address. Use that IP address to access it
