Power Button is in solid amber
Hello, My Wifi extender is having the power button in solid amber. I tried to make a factory reset and I am not able to do that. It seems that it stuck on reboot and I don't know what should...

The problem is that we are trying to fix an extender, I made the mistake of reading where you posted your message.
At the outset I should have advised you to put your problem in the appropriate section. This discussion shows why this is important. Different devices have different issues and ways of doing things.
This section is for Nighthawk WiFi Routers. The chances of success are higher if you take your problem to where it belongs:
WiFi Range Extenders & Nighthawk Mesh - NETGEAR Communities
Extenders are not routers.
