These are the steps to reset a Wi-Fi Extender if it stops working.
The easiest way to tell if a Wi-Fi Extender needs replacing is if the unit no longer lights up or broadcasts a signal.
Check the Wi-Fi Extender is still connected to the router.
There should be two additional wireless networks broadcast from the Wi-Fi Extender. Both networks should have an “EXT” at the end of the network name. There will be a 5GHZ and a 2GHZ network.
Wi-Fi Extension network in Windows networks
Click Properties on the wireless network.
Properties in the wireless networks in Windows taskbar
Check the network is connected, and is sending and receiving data.
Connected and secured in Windows Network and Internet settings
If the network is not connected, check the physical Wi-Fi Extender unit.
Ensure the data lights are flashing green.
Check the wireless signal strength light on the front of the device.
If the Wi-Fi Extender is black or amber, it has lost the connection to the router.
Press the WPS button on your router usually located at the top.
Press the WPS button on the Wi-Fi extender.
The connection will be re-established.
