wifi security light will not connect
recently i installed a netgear X6 ac2200 as an access point. I then installed three other range extenders (total four - I live in an old house with plaster lath and cement walls). All three range extenders are working well. HOWEVER, for one range extender, the wifi WPSsecurity LED will not light up. Thus, I have wifi that is not secure. I checked all the settings and they appear to be secure using WPA2-PSK including the one device that has no light on the WPS LED. i confirmed and it is the only range finder that is not secure. Any suggestions on how i secure the one range extender to make WPS LED be a solid white? should i do a manufacturer reset? thanks

update - did update the firmware. I placed the extender beside the access point router. I press the WPS button several times. After several times of pressing the wps over a 20 minute period it finally connected. I should be good to go for now. thanks jk
