Hello @pastafrola ,

Welcome to our community.

Based on your description, this matches a known scenario where the Signal, 2.4G, and 5G LEDs turn off during disconnection. Here are the recommended steps to address this:
1. Ensure the extender's Wi-Fi name differs from the router's. Having the same name can cause conflicts and lead to intermittent drops.
2. Update the extender's firmware to the latest version. Firmware updates often include stability improvements that can resolve this type of issue.
3. Reposition the extender for optimal signal strength. Placement plays a big role in connection stability. You can find detailed guidance here: How to Place Your TP-Link Wi-Fi Extender for the Best Signal and Performance
4. Adjust your router's wireless channel settings. Set the router's 2.4GHz channel to 1, 6, or 11, and the 5GHz channel to Band 1 (channels 36–48). This can significantly reduce interference, which may be the root cause — especially since the issue appeared on two different extenders.

Since the problem persisted across two extenders and different power sockets, the router's channel configuration or wireless interference is a likely culprit. Trying step 4 in particular may make a notable difference.
