WN1000RP. Only the middle light is green; the other two are dead. What's wrong please?

I've had the netgear booster a number of years and it's worked ok.  Then this morning I just get the one middle light green, the upper and lower indicators are dead.  I've tried switching the booster off and removing it from the plug; I've tried moving it closer to the router; I've tried switching the main router off and on - still the same.  As I'm now having to work from home due to the virus, I really need to get the booster up and working again. Please help!  Thanks in advance.

    So the middle one is the status light. green means its powered on. if the other 2 are off it means
    top: link rate---not connected to the router
    bottom-device light-its not connected to any devices.

    you can try resetting the extender and reinstalling it.
