Hi everyone,
my AC750 has stopped working out of the blue recently. The power LED will continue to flash and intermittently all the lights will show green apart from the wifi LED which will show red and will go back to just the power LED flashing. Its making a sort of wurring noise like it's trying to do something but not sure what.
I've tried to factory reset with the button underneath but that's not doing anything and I can't get go through the steps of reconnecting to the extender wifi to try and re connect it to my wifi network.
anyone got any ideas? The extender is less than a year old and it's always stayed in the same place it's never moved or turned off (no need really!)
thanks in advance!

Hi
I hope the following suggestions can help you:
1. It is recommended that you change the wall socket.
2.There is a small reset hole on the RE. You may use a pin to press the reset hole for 1 second to reset the extender.
If the extender does not respond to reset and was working normally before, you could contact the retailer for a replacement if the product was purchased recently.

Like Joseph suggested before, please try different power sockets then take factory reset.
If the range extender keeps showing abnormal LED or restarting in a loop(power light keeps flashing), it is suggested to contact your retailer or local support to confirm warranty.

Thank you for responding.
I had already:
1) tried alternative power sockets and
2) reset the unit a number of times
The original poster had described the fault and attempts to remedy it perfectly.
It seems strange that me and the other posters have experienced exactly the same issue within days of each other after the unit has run for just over a year.
Did your engineer, who assessed the original fault under the ticket number, provide any alternative method to try?
I understand that the unit has a 3 year manufacturers warranty.
As it is now a few days over a year since I purchased on 23/06/23 from Argos do you still expect this retailer will exchange the item? And, if not, what is the process for you to replace the unit?
