AC1900

Question

I have a netgear Nighthawk R7000 that is running just fine, and is connected to the internet.

I have also added a AC1900 Wifi Range Extender hard wired to the R7000. The extender is connected to the WiFi from the R7000 just fine. But the extender will not see the internet.

Suggestions please

what actual extender is it? AC1900 is a speed, not a model.

Also, the extenders usually have 2 modes.

Extender mode or access point mode.

Extender mode---->connects to router wireless and rebroadcasts

Access point mode---->its hardwired to the router via ethernet.

You can't run both modes at the same time. So if you're hardwiring it, make sure to set it up using the installation assistant and use the access point mode during setup. Don't setup extender mode if you're hardwiring it in.

Configuring it as an appliance instead of extender I believe
