Repeater issue

I have a livebox in my living room. Next to this livebox, I had a repeater that served as a relay to a second repeater installed in a bedroom.

The repeater next to my livebox is "out": it no longer lights up regardless of the socket I plug it into.

Should I buy a repeater of the same brand to replace it?

    Hello there,

    If I understand correctly, these are not repeaters provided by Orange; otherwise, next to the box, it serves no purpose.

    So it's a mesh network; what is the exact model of these "repeaters"?

    And there you go, here it is ....

    But goodness, how annoying the line spacing is!!

    Hello Brupala and thank you for replying.

    My livebox is an Orange livebox. It was connected until now to a Netgear repeater via an ethernet cable in a room far from the house, which did not receive internet; a technician had set up a DLINK system powered by another Netgear box. Everything was working fine until the Netgear box permanently turned off. I bought a box from another brand than Netgear and made the same connection as before near the livebox, but I can no longer receive internet where I used to receive it.

    I can't find a Netgear repeater at the moment, which is why I asked whether two linked repeaters need to be of the same brand?

    Thank you for your attention.

      OK,

      I asked you for the exact model for those Netgear, I think it's a mesh network you had, not repeaters, if it's a mesh network, I assume that your box's Wi-Fi is turned off.

      In a network, devices are not mixable, there isn't really a single standard, even at tp-link, there are 3 different systems (deco, one mesh, and omada).

      One piece of advice: forget about Netgear and go for tp-link mesh instead.

      That's what I have and it works very well at my place.
