You have the EX6110?
What firmware is on it?
What router are connecting it to?
Are you setting it up using wps or using the installation wizard?
You posted in the router section and not the extender section. do you have a netgear router as well?

yes it's EX6110
No idea what firmware (don't know what that is)!
Router: provided by Utility Warehouse - on the back it says technicolor DWA0120
Tried both for set up
Do not have a Netgear router.
I tried moving the extender back closer to the router and it connected for a mili second and then disconnected........?

Try factory resetting the EX6110 and reinstalling it 1 more using the installation assistant.
Push and hold reset for 7-15 seconds while the extender is powered on.
then use the installation assistant.
