WiFi extender setup AC1750

New unit now connected to router, but no internet access. Must have missed a step somewhere..... Anyone with a solution would be appreciated.. 4 led on front - 2 on, 1 off, 1 on (from left hand side). Thanks in advance.

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.

Once you get the netgear extender powered on, go to settings and connect to netgear_EXT. It will show no connection.  Open safari type in the IP address of the extender. It will open up a page, it will have set up extender, follow the instructions it will be really easy from there. Then you can move it to where you need the boost the most, give it a few minutes to start back up.  
good luck.
