EX7300v2 won’t power up
I’ve had this extender for 1 year and 5 weeks. Recently the wifi signal has been poor so I checked the extender and noticed that only the yellow power light was on. I unplugged the unit and plugged it...
when you reset, did you push and hold for up to 30 seconds while it was powered on?
You can try recoving it with tftp or nmrpflash.
are you on windows? if so, follow this guide

just make sure you enable tftp

and here's a video walk through using a tftp client. Use the built in one for windows 10 though. the video is more of an example of how its done.

and if that doesn't work, you can try using nmrpflash
Thanks for a lot of good information, unfortunately none of them corrected my issue. On the factory reset I tried 3 times: 30 seconds, 1 minute, and 2 minutes. Resetting power before each attempt.
I downloaded the latest firmware for windows, and the tftp file. I enable TFT on my computer and followed every instruction in the video but kept getting failed attempts to connect. I also download the nmrpflash program but it wouldn’t install because I’m missing a wpcap.dll file.
To be clear, this is an extender I’m having trouble with.

you can install wpcap if you scroll down on the nmrpflash readme.
