AC1200 remove login page to get the new extender set up page

I have a used AC1200 Wi-Fi booster device. When I connect to it to set it up a login page appears and not the New Extender Setup page. How do I fix this?

I know it sounds stupid but are you connected to the extender's own network and not the routers. (seen it happen). 

also, if you're on ios or mac, make sure icloud relay and private mac/ip address are disabled.
