NetGear WiFi Extender N300 (No LAN connection)

I've had this NetGear WiFi Range Extender in operation for about 18 months problem free.  I was using it to extend WiFi from home to garage.  At that point, I LAN connected to a local Video Camera DVR.  Recently power was off to the device for a couple days, creating the need to reestablish the WPS connection.  That was done successfully, but now DVR shows Offline, no internet.  Range Extender blinks activity however.

 

For verification, I relocated the DVR to the main WiFi router inside and connected via LAN.  All works well.

 

All appears to point towards WiFi Extender LAN output configuration being an issue.

 

Any ideas?

Hello NetNerd2,

 

Welcome to the community! This may sound silly, but have you tried switching out the ethernet cable being used? Also, please ensure that your device is on the latest firmware version which I've linked below.
