Wifi Extender

My extender just shows both the power LED and 2.4 GHz lED on solid even though I have both 2.4 & 5G. On trying to extend by pressing the WPS button the light keeps blinking and doesnt go solid.

Also in my Wifi connections list the Netgear_Ext shows up but on connecting to it, there's no internet even with the 2.4 G light on, it still shows as open.

How can I get it to connect to my Rogers internet router and have actual internet connectivity and finally get the extension going?

Please help.

    What actual router do you have? (Model)

    have you tried a factory reset and then reinstall using the installation assistant? Don't use wps.
