Connected the extender to the WiFi network, bu't the client link LED won't lit.  When authenticating the extender, the authenticating returns 'Authenticating problems' and 'Off coveridge'. The client link LED is shortly lit but goes out. Have tested several locations. Router:Technicolor TG799vac 2,4GHz.

Any suggestions most welcome!

Hello btangf,

 

Welcome to the Community! 

 

Factory reset the extender by pressing on the small black button using a pin for 15+ seconds then join the NETGEAR_EXT wifi network using a phone or laptop. After you connect to the NETGEAR_EXT network with your phone or laptop, browse to www.mywifiext.net and follow the setup instructions.
