Dear support,
I am unable to do a factory reset on my recently acquired AV600 WiFi Extender.
For some reason it is stuck in a weird blinking lights loop. I made a video of it for clarification =

I tried to do a normal reset as per the user manual (hold reset button for 10 seconds), as well as the 30 30 30 reset =
1. When router is powered on, press the reset button and hold for 30 seconds. (Use a paper clip or something sharp
2. While holding the reset button pressed, unplug the power of the router and hold the reset button for 30 second
3. While still holding the reset button down, turn on the power to the unit again and hold for another 30 seconds
It would be great if someone can help me figure out what is wrong :) thank you a lot in advance!!
@pfgpowell1 Hello,
You could try factory reset for wired and wireless powerline units as the instruction below.
If all the Leds/ most Leds flash once, that means factory reset was done successfully.
After factory reset , wireless powerline unit will have ' TP-LINK XXX' default SSID and the password is the 8 digit default wifi password on the back.
If powerline unit does not response to a factory reset, change a different wall socket for it and try factory reset again.
