trying to update firmware and the link to the wifi ext is not working
my laptop is connected directly to my wifi range extender via ethernet cable. Why can i not access the extender.It keeps saying I am not directly connected! HELP!! netgear support was no help. ...
go into your laptops network connections and disable the wifi adapter from there. you can reenable after you get it setup.
otherwise your laptop could have the wireless connected back to the router and the ethernet to the extender.
