Access EX8000

Hello, im trying to connect & access EX8000 but it doesn't work out, it seems on the wifi list but when I tried to connect it, on wifi list i got this written NETGEAR_EXT connected "Saved (no internet access)". The EX8000 device status light is off, actually just 2 lights is on, the 2.4 light and Client link, all the others is off.  Im trying to get a access from my android mobile device (Huawei Honor), i tried this link (http://mywifiext.local) but unfortunately I didn't knew how carry on.!
Waiting for your reply, Thank you!

    Hello Raed86, 

     

    Factory reset the extender by pressing on the small black button using a pin for 15+ seconds then join the NETGEAR_EXT wifi network using a phone or laptop. After you connect to the NETGEAR_EXT network with your phone or laptop, browse to www.mywifiext.net and follow the setup instructions.
