My neighbor and I share wifi using extenders and the main router is located in their home. I have an N300 connected to their NETGEAR R6300v2 2.4Ghz connection and the internet connection has become very slow and unstable. At one point it worked flawlessly. Something I noticed that is very odd is the device link light. All lights are green but the device link tends to turn amber and red when I use my iPhone 6 on the extender in the same room and the connection is slow and unstable. When I connect my 2013 MacBook Pro to the extender, the device link stays green but the connection is still slow. The extender is on channel 1 while the main router is on "auto". The main router has 6 devices attached. I've tried changing channels and updating firmware but the connection remains the same or gets worse. The main connection seems to work better when the extender is off. I've checked the NETGEAR Genie for the extender and it says everything is working properly. What could be the issue?4.1KViews0likes2CommentsProblem with wn2000RPTv3 firmware update
Hello everyone, I have a problem with my Netgear wifi extender. It a WN2000RPTv3. I was trying to update its firmware but i didn't know that i had to be connected with ethernet and not with wireless to it... So, i tried in wireless. Now my extender has a blink light green and when i try to connect it to my pc with ethernet, my pc don't recognize it. I don't know what to do. I tried to reset it but the green light persist. I read on internet that i may try to update its firmware using a tftp2.exe but i don't know how. Someone can help me? the symbol that blinks is the status light Thanks in advance and sorry if my english is not perfect3.1KViews0likes1Comment
