WN3000RP no longer connects to router after fuse blown/reset

Hi, I've been using a wifi extender with no issues for a few weeks at my house...up until we accidentally blew a fuse, and the main router suddenly didn't work. Housemate called tech support and got the router working again...but now the extender won't connect. Have tried factory reset, tweaking encryption settings, wireless protected mode, moving the extender to other locations but the setup always fails on the last step.

I'm using a Cisco DPC3825 router, and there is no option to delete the extender from the DHCP list, I looked!

Hi Panda Chef,

The WPS might be locked on the cisco modem/router after 10 try's you can only revert it bij resetting the cisco.

trying the wpa or wpa2 key you changed on the router if not the standard wpa2 key should be on the bottom of the cisco!

If both fails try resetten the cisco router the dhcp list should be empty after that 😉
