Configure AP Mode with Same SSID to extend WiFi signal

And those devices that cannot connect, you have disabled/enabled their WiFi and still have this issue?

Do those devices that connect to the AP's WiFi after reset have Internet access tested and confirmed?

Could be a compatibility issue with the signal from the AP with those that cannot.

Have you set the bandwidth to 40Mhz or 20/40? If so, try just 20. Are you running B/G/N for compatibility or strictly N?

If you have older WiFi devices, you'll need to sacrifice speed for compatibility....if that's the case here.

Edit: Why are you showing me that screenshot? Not only is that of your router, but it's also one you posted before if I recall correctly. Your Motorola is your router, not your AP if we're still on the same page here. The Motorola is the gateway for the AP. So if your AP has a gateway option, you should set it to the IP of your router (192.168.0.1).
 
can you screenshot the operation mode tabs of the AP?

My phone and my laptop connect fine after wifi reset and everything works fine, youtube, email, web search, etc. By default it was in 40Mhz, I changed already to 20 no fix.

That all looks like you're set for compatibility, but if no change with 20MHz, set back to 40. You might

More research on the Netis WF2416 shows something with issues...so there could be a problem with this device. With the limited options you have, it should be enough to have a functioning network IMHO. You might need to contact their support or see if you can perform a hard reset or a firmware upgrade. Though I think you've said you've already reset it before.

If you want a really good AP, with pretty awesome range that has an easy UI to work inside of, an Ubiquity UniFi AP might be a good option if available to you. I've setup a lot of these with excellent success. They're the kind of device you set it and forget it in most cases. They just work.

Also tip and forum rules, just edit the post before this one and add pictures to it instead of posting multiple times in the future. :toast:
