Only power light is on
Hey all. Happy New Year's. I was wondering if anybody knew or had a similar experience. For my extender, I only have the power light on. None of the other lights are on meaning nothing else works. Tha...
The power light is a steady green light. I'll try those options you gave me. I use my phone for setup.

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.

I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
