R8000 will not connect to the internet

My Range Extender won't connect to the internet though it shows 5 bars on my computer.  I can connect to the Extender, but it won't connect to the internet.  I see others have this problem, but I have seen no solutions for this model.  My computer is a Dell XPS with Windows 7.  Can anyone help me?

Hi @MoBo48,

 

Welcome to the community!

 

1. Please make sure you go though the setup procedure. The installation guide is linked below.

2. Once you have the extender configured and connected to the main network you should be able to go online through the extender.
