Were you trying to use the "one push button" method on it? (WPS)
Or did you try connecting to the extender and using its installation assistant?
Reason I ask is the push button method works great with the same manufacturer's but when you mix them, you can run into issues. Its where a manual setup works better.
- I attached pic of quick setup guide I used. Hope this will help clarify. I would think this way isn't what the call 1 tap setup, but then again this is all foreign to me. Sorry, I'm not very helpful. Thank you for your patience, and willingness to try to help me with this!
