Nighthawk extender nessuna connessione con iPad e iPhone

Il mio iPhone 12 e l'iPad mi danno l'avviso di 'nessuna connessione' quando mi collego con le reti 2.4G e 5G dell'extender.

Il mio PC Windows invece si connette senza problemi.

Ho già fatto più volte il reset e poi riconfigurato l'extender ma niente da fare.

Il firmware è aggiornato.

Il router è un Alcatel HH71.

Qualcuno mi può aiutare?

Paolo

Nighthawk extender is now connected with a Technicolor router and it works smoothly.

Don't know why but the probem was surely with Alcatel router.

Many thanks

when you're installing, do you use the installation assistant or install using the push-button WPS method?

I tried both ways.

I haven't seen anyone post about using an extender with that router. 

have you tried setting up the extender with a static ip address in the Alcatel HH71

Re: Nighthawk extender nessuna connessione con iPad e iPhone

I tried with a static IP addrees in the Alcatel but it doesn't work.

For your information when my iPhone and iPad are in 'no connection' status the following IP address is shown:

IP Address: 169.254.7.52

Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0

Router gateway: none

 

While the correct IP address from the Alcatel router should be:

IP Address: 192.168.1.10(X)

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

Router gateway: 192.168.1.1

What extender is it and what firmware is on it?

Extender EX7700 Nighthawk X6 Triband.

Firmware downgraded to 1.0.0.206 from 1.0.0.216: both with the same problem.

Model: EX7700|AC2200 Nighthawk X6 Tri-Band WiFi Mesh Extender

have you checked with alcatel? it seems like that router only supports 32 devices which isn't a standard amount. most support quite a bit more. Not sure if they have something limiting it
