Netgear Wifi Range Extender Keeps Disconnecting from Router and Powering Down

My wifi extender is being extremely malfunctional. I have attempted to write this out several times only for my extender to randomly power down completely while plugged into my outlet. My internet gave out about 3 weeks ago and ever since my extender has begun to sparatically cut out completely (all leds turn off besides power it turns orange) and drop connection completely to both my router and my pc. I do not know how to fix this issue and i do not see any other topics similar to mine. I've owned this extender for almost a year now and it has worked without issue up until 3 weeks ago. I don't know how to fix this.

Maybe something was corrupted in the firmware when the "internet gave out".

Try manually reinstalling the firmware to it, then factory reset, and install using the installation assistant (not wps)

might want to post in the extender section next time.
