TL-WA850RE signal strength lights start blinking when try to open web pages
Model :

Model: TL-WA850RE
Hardware Ver: 1.25

I have a wa850re which works fine before, it use a custom ssid. The problem is on one day I use another laptop to connect to the extend wifi, when I open one or two web pages, the extender wifi strength light turns to blink and internet lost. After this all devices which works fine before have the same problem.
More Details:
Power on the extender, lights show it works. Then connect to the ext wifi, windows system shows has internet. The internet lost only happens after try to open web pages.
If turn on connect to ext wifi automatically, after reconnection the wifi name changes to "xx_ext 2", have to reconnect manually then the internet back, but the problem will come again when open web pages.
Sometime can open 3-6 web pages, then internet lost, sometimes cannot open pages.
If the wifi strength light start to blink, have to turn off the power and restart. But not solve the problem.
Skype not working when using the ext wifi.
When internet lost, the http://tplinkrepeater.net/ page pops up automatically.
When login to http://tplinkrepeater.net/, the status sometimes shows cannot connect to the router and internet both, sometimes shows all good but will get error 404 after click the refresh button.
Router works fine if connect directly.
What I have tried:
Restart the extender
Reset the extender from http://tplinkrepeater.net/
Reset the extender by the reset button.
Re-config the extender
Reset the router.
Could someone can help me to solve this please? Thanks very much!!
