Bypassing startup mywifiext.net wizard with EX6200

Can someone please advise as to how a person can skip the foul wizard for the Netgear EX6200 WiFi Range Extender? I've reset it to factory defaults and tried the following links but they don't work:

 

 

I don't understand why Netgear forces this on users, it's not necessary with products from other brands like Linksys. Thank you in advance!

    Hi nsyss,

                      During setup screen where you can choose extender or AP, down below you'll get an option to skip the setup thereby you can access its settings without setting it up.

      You'd think that would be intuitive but unfortunately that option doesn't exist, which is why I'm now very highly critical of Netgear products.
