My TP-Link RE205 extender has been working fine for the last 6 months. 3 days ago it kept dropping in and out of wifi so we went and resetted both modem and extender. It says on the app the connection is fine, and you can connect to it on our computers and phone but the actual internet doesn't work. How do I get it to work again? We have tried all the recommended strategies on the internet. Please help, we need wifi to run our business.

Hi@Rose001,

If you are experiencing intermittent wireless connection on the range extender, please refer to the following suggestions:
1. Confirm the extender is properly located based on How to place your wireless Range Extender for optimal reception and performance.
2. Make sure the firmware on the extender is up-to-date.
3. Disable Parental Control or Access Control (Blacklist/ Whitelist) on the host router if they have been enabled for the extender.

For more details, please refer to What if the Range Extender keeps losing connection?
