Extender signal inconsisten
Our range extender works well after it is set up, but after a period of several hours, when we try to connect on both bands, 2.4. And 5G, we get the message "no internet connection." When we unplug the extender and plug it back in, it works fine.
We spent time with a service technician, who had us reinstall the extender, suggesting the initial installation was incomplete. The problem still happens. We tried another extender, different brand, before getting this one and it had the same problem. Since we had great luck with an outdated Netgear extender in the past (fully stable signal and in the exact location of the new one), we opted for Netgear again.
Has anyone dealt with this situation before? Any ideas of the cause or possible remedies? I hate to unplug and replug daily, but for now that seems the only fix.
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
