CONNECTING TO ROKU

When the ROKU asked for a password -  is it the WIFI password or the Router password?

Roku shows that it's receiving a great signal from the extender but it won't connect.

Thanks,

    It would be the wifi password that it is looking for.

      What about the extender. My WIFI name might be SR54 and I put in my Wifi password to use ROKU. The extender is SR54EXT - do I use the same password to connect it to the ROKU? It didn't seem like it wanted to accept the WIFI password.

      Thanks,

        Yes if you did not change the password of the extender when you set it up typically its the same wifi password as your main router.
