I am having trouble with my N300 wifi extender

I am not very good with technology and clearly made a mistake. I got the wifi extender to increase overall coverage in my apartment, but now seem to have an issue. I set the product up properly via browser as I was not able to set it up the other way. It showed up as my wifi network name (ex: Wifi_EXT). I was thankful to seemingly get it up and running properly, but think i got carried away when i unplugged it from its original outlet, took it into the room where i was having spotty wifi, and connected it to the TV via ethernet cable. I now cannot find (Wifi_EXT), but rather (TV_EXT). I still have spotty coverage and dont know what im doing from this point forward. I'm not tech savy at all..hoping for some help. Thanks!

You should still be seeing the WiFi_ext network.  I'm not sure where the TV_EXT network is coming from.  The TV itself should be set up to connect over ethernet.  What is the manufacturer/model of the TV?

 

What color is the router LED on the EX2700?
