EX7000 connection on 5 gHz

After updating the firmware in my EX7000 and applying Fast Lane I cannot connect neither my ASUS laptop nor my Samsung Galaxy A3.

What mode of Fast Lane did you select?

Do you have MAC filtering enabled on your base router? If you do, you will need to include the modified MAC addresses for your devices, from the extender.

Thank You for answer.

I have a NETGEAR R7500 as base router. How can I se if MAC filtering is activated. I can see one MAC aress for the the router and one for the Internet port.

Hi Matmyr,

 

Can you please login to your R7500 and take a screenshot of what you do see on the interface under the "Advanced" tab?
