    I'm just curious if you have any other devices in the connected devices page of your router that might be the extender. 

    If you hardwire into the extender (with router turned off) and reboot the extener, it should get a default ip address of 192.168.1.250.

    No other extender device shows.

    I think I now understand the issue :)

    Thanks for pointing out the meshing feature that I messed in the firmware update! I actually left it like that.

    My network has another range than 192.168.1.x  and so the reset to 192.168.1.250 will not show in my router or anywhere on my network. So I would need to set a static 192 IP on the device I want to connect. Previously I must have done the change ofhe IP from the extender.
