Hi shought,
Welcome to the community!
1. What is the firmware version of the extender?
2. Have you tried changing the channel of the main wireless network (BT Home Hub)?
3. Does the issue persist on both bands (2.4GHz and 5GHz)?
4. Does the issue persist on all the devices that connect to the extender?
5. Please make sure that there is no filtering feature on the main network that may be blocking access for the extender.
Regards,
Dexter
