Cannot get past setup screen for WN3000RP Wifi Extender

I am trying to access the maintenance section for this wifi extender, but for some odd reason, I cannot get past the initial setup screen. I have already set up the extender, and it works, but I need to access the maintenance section and I cannot get to it. I accessed my.wifiext.net using Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome using a wireless and wired connection, but the maintenance section never appears. I'm stuck and I can't get past the Netgear genie page. Does anyone how to fix this issue?

  • OK I figured it out, and I'm going to post my solution here in case anyone else encounters this issue. I decided to reset the extender. I then connected an Ethernet cable to the extender and my laptop, and I went to the mywifiext.net page. I set the wireless connnection up again, and then I went back to mywifiext.net and I was prompted to enter the username and password. After I entered the credentials, I was able to access the Maintenance section.

    I realized I made a typo in my original post. The website is mywifiext.net not my.wifiext.net.
