Broadcast issues for netgear wn2000rpt

Broadcast issues for netgear wn2000rpt

Had this extender a few years. Moved it to the garage after buying the x10. Trying to set it up again. Did the factory reset a few times. Now it doesn’t seem to be broadcasting a signal. Reset usually gives me an unsecured network. But I’m not seeeing anything. The green light comes on after reboot. But not seeing anything on the network.

Hello @Rx700codmaster

 

Please hold the factory reset button for 30 seconds and run through the setup again. Please refer to the article below for setup:

It stopped broadcasting a signal after a number of factory resets. I eventually just tossed it in the trash. It was 8-9 years old. (EST)

Im using my asus rt66u in repeater mode. Works good.
