In case of your Wavlink extender malfunction after a power cycle, it is not a big deal—this happens a lot and can usually be fixed in no time at all. To begin with, make sure the extender is connected to a reliable power source and the cables are all plugged in tightly. After turning it on again, allow it a couple of minutes to complete the rebooting and connecting the router.

If the situation is still the same, then hold the reset button for about ten seconds to perform a factory reset. This step removes any temporary issues that might have resulted from the power cycle. You will then have to reconfigure the connection through the Wavlink app or web interface.

Do check if the WiFi signal coming from your router is strong in the vicinity of the extender’s location; weak signals can lead to problems with connectivity. Following these steps, your Wavlink extender not working issue after power cycle should be fixed thus, giving you back the strong and reliable WiFi coverage.
