Re: Netgear EX 6250 Not connecting to devices
What version do you have?
what firmware is on the extender?
what router is it connected to?
Did you set it up using wps or the installation wizard?

Re: Netgear EX 6250 Not connecting to devices
when its "not connecting" what actual error are you getting or seeing?
Also, you might try upgrading to the 1.0.0.146 firmware, then do a factory reset/reinstall.

It does not give any error in mobile or laptop it tries to connect with the circle sign and after a minute or two it switches to other network same thing applies if i try to connect mobile, iphone, laptop. But if i restart the extender than i can connect everything to it..... and if i go away from the network range and come back in the range then it does not connect to the devices and the above point continues until i restart the router

Re: Netgear EX 6250 Not connecting to devices
did you try upgrading the firmware then factory resetting/reinstalling?
Also, are you using the mesh function? (one wifi?)

Re: Netgear EX 6250 Not connecting to devices
another thing to try is setting a static ip address in your router for the extender. (if it doesn't work with the firmware upgrade)

Re: Netgear EX 6250 Not connecting to devices
Tried updating the firmware, still the device does not connect.
what i see is the mobile phone, SUBNET MASK shows 255.255.0.0 when it tries to connect and when it connects it shows 255.255.255.0
is it some address issue in connecting the mobile to the extender

Re: Netgear EX 6250 Not connecting to devices
Did you set it with a static ip address from the router?
have you tried installing it using the installation assistant and not WPS or the app?

Re: Netgear EX 6250 Not connecting to devices
you'd need to contact your ISP with setting up a static ip address in that router. Its an isp supplied device.
to install it using the installation assistant you'd use the mywifiext . net
