Re: Netgear WiFi Extenders

1. what router do you have? 

2. what extender is it? N300 is a speed, not a model

3. what firmware is on the extender?

Did you set it up using the push button WPS option? 

If so, factory reset the extender  and set it up using the installation assistant.

To factory reset, push and hold the reset button for 7-15 seconds while powered on. 

Here's a video of how to use the assistant.
