Connect with WPS

I am trying to connect a brand new AC1200 Extender Model EX6150v2 to a Comcast router using the Quick Start Connect with WPS directions. After I press the WPS button on the router, the WPS LED is solid green for a minute or two, then flashes green for a couple of seconds, the then turns off. The Router Link button never lights up.

Re: Connect with WPS

Borrowed from the fine documentation - NETGEAR AC1200 WiF Range Extender Model EX6150v2 User Manual p.28 "Use WPS With the Push Button Method":

 

7. Click the WIFI PROTECTED SETUP (WPS) button.
For two minutes, the extender attempts to add the WiFi-enabled computer or mobile
device to its WiFi network.
8. Within two minutes, go to the WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device and press or click its
WPS button.

Re: Connect with WPS

Have you tried doing the install with the installation assistant and not wps?
