Range Extender restarts on every 5 mins
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I bought Tp LInk Extender RE300 AC1200 Mesh WiFi Range Extender on Nov 27th, 2021. I am able to get more coverage at my home with speed of average 25Mbps, which is a a satisfying speed for me. But the device is getting restarted every now and then, which very annoying. How can I solve the problem, I have tried different power sockets, but no luck yet.
Please help!

Hello @sreejith824
Thank you for the photo! After factory reset RE, if keep RE in factory reset state, if do not connect RE to Wi-Fi router, will it stop restarting?
RESET: with RE powered on , press the reset hole until all the LEDs flash once.
Do not worry, if the device is diagnose as defective, you should be able to get a replacement with device warranty. I will escalate your case, please check your inbox, thank you
