Router light problem.

Hi, I have a WN3000rpv3 wifi extender and recently i've been having a problem with the router light not being on at all. I've tried to reset my router as I thought that might be the problem. I have tried to connect the extender a few times but nothing. All the other lights are on so i'm not sure what the problem is. Thank you!

    Hello james198925

     

    Is the extender working just the light is not working or is it not connected at all to the router?

      Hi Darren, thanks for replying. The light is not on but it is not connecting to the router either.

       

      There are two small circle lights that are on and nothing else.

        Hello James198925

         

        I would try to factory reset the extender by holding down the reset button for 10 seconds and then try to do the setup again for the extender.
