Netgear N300 WiFi Range Extender
I have a range extender (Netgear wn3000rpv3) that has been working fine for a couple of years. Yesterday, it gets unplugged due to cleaning. Upon plugging it back in, the network pops up just as before without any messages saying there is no internet access, but all attempts at going online hang indefinitely. This is across multiple devices. I tried turning it off, unplugging it, etc. to no avail. I even did the factory reset, and set it up on the previous network just as before, and it has the exact same hanging issue! One thing I have noticed is that since yesterday (and before and after the reset) the top right led (devices?) generally glows red although it sometimes switches to green for a brief time. Any help is appreciated, but please don't tell me to update the firmware unless this is a known past issue fixed in a release, because it was working fine yesterday. Thanks
