A couple things.
1. AC1200 is a speed, not a model. what actual model do you have?
2. If you have more than 1 extender connected, then you'll want to use its ip address to access it. Log into your router and look at its attached devices page in router (or equivalent). It'll have the ip addresses for the extenders. Use that to access the extender
3. what router are you connecting it to?
4. if you're getting the "password not accepted" and you'd hit the WPS button. Try factory resetting the extender and setting up using the installation assistant. Make sure to avoid special characters or spaces in the ssid/password.

When I try and use the manual setup it doesn’t connect to the router - I can see the net gear extender but just can’t connect to the setup page at all. The router light is not lit.
when I hit the wps button all the lights go green and it shows names as an extension to the modem router, but the password doesn’t work. I’m struggling to find it on the Vodafone modem login page to try and do anything!
