Can't get extension WiFi to recognise my WiFi password
I have turned it on, moved it away, then further away, all lights are on. When I look at my phone it comes up with the 2 WiFi extension options. I choose one/either and it asks for my WiFi password so...

I tried the installation assistant and at the end it required passwords and so still didn't work. Now I can't seem to get to the installation assistant again it just goes to a Netgear Web page which doesn't help and certainly no sign of the model number I have.

What installation assistant? A browser on a PC? An app on a mobile device?

I'm afraid this doesn't tell us much. What "Netgear Web page"? What does it say?
Netgear devices should to take you to any "web page", which most of us think of as somewhere out on the Internet. You should arrive at the browser graphical user interface (GUI) for the device.
This is where you set up and control your extender.
Did you find the video on the support pages for your extender?
We still do not know what this vodafone modem/router is, so we can't tell what features it has.
Look all over it for a button with the label WPS. If you find it, press the button press the WPS button on the EX6110 and when ti start flashing press the WPS button on the vodafone thing.
With luck the two devices will see each other and set up a connection.
