Cannot find password for my PowerLine 1000 WiFi access point

I get a NETGEAR37_EXT network to sign onto but it needs a password to sign on and I can't find it

    You may find a default Network key (passphrase) on a label on the back of the plug.

     

    Powerline device

     

    You don't say which PowerLine 1000 this is, but you should find instructions on how to Customize Your Network Settings in the documentation for the hardware. Then you can pick your own passphrase.

     

    Maybe here:
