WiFi Extenders
My extender stopped working.....i can connect to it on devices and via ethernet cable but I can't connect to the internet. Any ideas on how to fix this? And yes I tried turning it off and on again

Which wifi extender are we talking about? Netgear makes a lot of them.
- BeastcheetahAspirantI have no idea. How do I check to see what it is?

The model number might be on the extender?
It is either on the back, by the ethernet sockets, or on the bottom.
Something like WN2000RPT.

Hello Beastcheetah
Have you tried to factory reset your extender by holding the reset button for 10 seconds then you will have to do the setup again of the extender.
