Millions rely on a RangeXTD WiFi range extender to fulfill their need for a reliable WiFi in each and every corner of the house. But, a very few of them are able to make the most of their devices after completing the RangeXTD WiFi booster setup. Some users complaint that their RangeXTD extender is connected to the router but there’s no internet. On the off-chance you are also facing the same kind of a problem; you can take the help of the information given in this post.
Fixed: RangeXTD Extender Connected But No Internet
If you are unable to access the internet via the RangeXTD network despite the extender being connected to the router, you are suggested to check the cable holding your devices together. Is that Ethernet cable free of damages? In case, it is not, we suggest you get that cable replaced with a new one. In addition to that, it is recommended that you make the connection finger-tight. The ports of your devices must also be in a working state.
If doing all this fails to help you out, it is suggested that you seek guidance from the troubleshooting techniques given below.
1. Reduce the Extender and Router Distance
Have you kept your RangeXTD device too far from the main router? If you did, then you cannot expect your range extender to provide you internet. Know that, when the distance separating two networking devices is too much, you cannot expect them to communicate effectively. The same thing might have happened with your RangeXTD extender. Therefore, we recommend you reduce that gap between them. While doing so, just ensure that you have not kept them too close. Otherwise, their signals will clash.
2. Restart the Extender
Sometimes, it is just a glitch due to which you might get the no internet connection problem even after being connected to internet. To confirm the same, we recommend you connect your device directly to the main router and see if there is an internet connection. If there is, then the problem is with the range extender. To resolve the issue, it is suggested that you restart the range extender. Simply, unplug it from its respective power outlet and wait for a few moments. Once you feel that enough time has been given to the extender for rest, you can re-plug it and see if the problem in the discussion has been resolved or not.
3. Ping the Router
Now, it is time to ping the router. This will ensure that whether the problem is with the extender or with the main router (ISP internet connection). To ping the router, we suggest you connect your router and PC directly and type the main IP of your router followed by the Ping command. If you start getting ping replies, it means the problem lies in the extender. However, if you don’t get reply from the Ping command, you can conclude that there is an internet connection related problem. You should contact your ISP in this case.
We also recommend you check whether the internet connection to your extender is allowed from the router’s web GUI or not. If it is, you are suggested to try accessing the 192.168.7.234 IP address after making things correct. If you get successful, then the issue has been resolved. Otherwise, perform a factory default reset of the extender.
The Final Words
That was all about what to do if you are getting the RangeXTD extender connected but no internet issue. We hope that the reset process will act as an axe to the issue and you will be able to resolve it easily. However, do not forget to set up your range extender once again after the factory default reset.
