Yeah it happens to me all the time. but i think this has to do with the dhcp addressing with your main router, in most cases it happens ones a week sometimes longer, there fore i installed a wireless on off switch to reboot and turn the extender off and on again. sometimes it does not work at once and have to do it twice in a row. it seems that since some new firmware it got less it used to do this every day ;) maybe it's something the main routers can't handle the ipadress sometimes is taken and it keeps it that way. If you do nothing it can take hours so turning the extender on and off is faster. i have connected 4 devices and main router is a speedtouch 780WL.
