I have Wifi6 through a Helix modem/router with ISP Videotron. Wireless setup procedure is normal and successful, but the range extender fails to connect even though all LED lights are solid and the location of the extender is in "good".range.

Videotron is tellng me that TP Link will not work with Helix. I have to purchase their Helix Pods.

However, up until last week our old TP-Link extender worked well, then died. I assumed it was because of its age and bought the newest model available.

Meant to mention that I cannot access the login ip address either. It seems to be blocked.

Hi, welcome to the community.

After RE605X was configured, it might obtain a new IP address from the Helix router so 192.168.0.254 would no longer be available and you could try http://tplinkrepeater.net.

You could also try to log in via the Tether APP.

If both 2.4GHz and 5GHz turn on, I think RE605X has been configured correctly.

You could refer to this link to edit the DHCP server settings to see whether it helped:

Please also refer to this link to check whether any access control settings have been configured on the Helix router:

Thank you very much and best regards.
