I've been using a WN3000RP wi-fi extender for the last year or so and it's worked perfectly. Today however it stopped working.
I've done a factory reset and it was no problem for the extender to find the router's network and it marked the signal strength of the routers network to 50%. I can connect my units to the extender also without problems. The extender just doesn't "receive" any internet from the router. The router has internet and my main network work just fine.
When i try to connect my phone to the extender it wants me to log in to the network and when i try to do that it says {"reset": "1"}.
The router it's connected to is a Sagemcom Fast5370e.
I used the assistant on mywifiext. net.
When I log into mywifiext. net it says that it cant connect to the Existing Network. I've also tried to move the extender closer to the router without success.
Some of my translastions might be wrong since I use it in swedish.
It's just wierd since it has been working perfectly for a year.----its part of why I struggle with sagemcom. They push updates and their firmware is garbage.
Also what does the {"reset": "1"} means. I've seen it in a few threads here but no solution for it.----got a screensnip of it? not sure what you're referring to.
was trying to check that models forums for issues with adding extenders but sadly its all in different languages. Tough to peruse through and find any tips/tricks for that model router.
Yeah, I understand it's hard when it's the wrong language. 😛
I wasn't successful in connecting it using WPS. I've sent a mail to Sagemcom about any possible update that might have interfered with the extender/router relationship.
I found the firmware on the extender and it is V1.0.2.80.
I was in contact with the Netgear support in Sweden and after some testing it became apparent that my extender is a faulty device. So I'll be getting a new one on warranty.
