My AC1200 WiFi Range Extender keeps disconnecting

Hi, my ac1200 wifi extender continues to disconnect himself from the Internet every 20-25 minutes for about 10 seconds and then reconnects. This is extremely annoying specially since i use this extender to connect my computer and other gaming systems. I need a solution to this problem. Now with that said, i know how this goes. So before any questions are asked please see read everything....My main router is across from the extender, we are talking about 8 feet, nothing is between the router and the extender. I tried, resetting to factory settings, changing the channel, updating firmware. I need a solution to this problem please. I am also connected using Ethernet cable, i also switch the cable to a brand new one, so i know is not the cable. 

 

I need help, this is ridiculous!

Hello stalkingdatoast

 

If you are using this as a AP via ethernet you shouldn't be seeing drops like this I would say contact support if the extender is still under warranty.
