Extender 300 weak signal

[RY1]

I have a new Extender 300, using with a new BT Smart Hub 2.  All set up easily, but the Extender light shows only amber when plugged in, and never goes to green.  Even when plugged in within a few feet of the Hub, in the same room.  As a result, the signal is not as strong as it should be.  Any comments or suggestions gratefully received!

Hi @RY1 

Welcome to the Community and thanks for your post!

Sorry to see you're having problems with your Wifi 300 extender.  Here is the link to the product's user guide:  Essentials 300 user guide

Here is a look at what the lights on the device mean..

The solid amber light means that the device is too close to the Hub/Router.  Can you try and move further away to see if it still happens?  If you're still having problems your best bet would be to have a chat with product support.  You can find the contact details on the last page of the user guide.  I have pasted this below for you own convenience.

Cheers,

Robbie
