Wifi Extender WN3000RPv3

I have been using this extender for several months with no problem. I have a new alarm system and a Vonet wifi bridge which allows the alarm to connect to wifi. If I connect the Vonets unit to the extender it says connected, no internet, however the Vonets bridge will connect with internet direct to my router. Risco (the alarm manufacturer) spent some time on this but said there must be a problem with the NG extender. Any ideas please?

    Hello aworth

     

    Is there maybe a certain bandwidth requirement that the alarm system requires for it to work?

      Hi Darren

       

      It isn't the alarm system itself. Risco supply a wireless bridge to go with it. I am the first person with this problem as I have the Netgear extender

      so need to resolve this or I can't get the alarm to work correctly. It works at the momnent but very spuriously.

       

      The info on the bridge is at

      I hope you can help.

       

      Kind Regards
