wi fi extender stopped working
My wifi extender EX8000 – AC3000 Nighthawk X6S Tri Band WiFi Range Extender stopped working and will not connect to the router anymore. I have even tried to reset it. It keeps sayong ahving issues connecting with XXXX Go to settings>WIFI and join your routers network. I am joined on my phone with my routers network. It still wont connect. So I ahve even tried a new system set up. IT will not connect to the extender. IT tells me to to setting WIFI and connect to Netgear_ext. Then return to the Nighthawk app. The problem is Netgear_ext does not appear on my list for network to join. This extender is barely 6 months old and cost nearly $200. This is ridiculous that I cannot get any help from Netgear.

Re: wi fi extender stopped working
What router are you connecting it to?
What firmware is on the extender?
What are all the led's on the extender showing? (color, blinking, etc)
have you tried a factory reset and reinstall on the extender? Push and hold reset for 7-15 seconds while its powered on. Then reinstall it. I'd recommend hardwiring into the extender (disable wifi on the device you connect to it) and using the installation assistant.

I'd highly recommend the installation assistant.
