Billion UK Forum

Hi

I have had a billion 7800 router for a number of years now with no problems. I wanted to extend the range out into the garden where it just fell short so bought a tp link wifi extender. I synced it up ok and it connected, but only for about 5 minutes before the tp extender disconnected, and then needed resetting. Furthermore, if I now switch it on I cannot connect to the billion.

I know it's the router as I had an identical issue with an airport express. Please help as its driving me and the missus mad.

Thanks

Try changing the channel width to 20mhz

Thanks for the advise, do you know which setting that's in??
