Change Extender MAC address
Hello - I would like to know whether it it possible to change an AC1900 MAC address. I have been using the AC1900 to extend the connection of the router placed in a common area of our building, ...
Is the extender connecting to the router on 2.4Ghz or 5? What color are the link rate LEDs?
- Thanks for the reply. The Extender connects to 5Ghz. The Ghz leds are off (which I believe is not normal).

One thing you could try is a factory reset (setting the extender up again).
- Unfortunately I tried a couple of hard resets per manual (pressing the reset button for 7seconds etc etc) but the same issue occurs.
