So you have it connected by wire to the comcast modem/router?
What router is it?
did you set it up in access point mode (since its hardwired in) or extender mode?
what you can try doing is log into the comcast router to check what IP address it assigned to the extender and use that to access the extender.
And you do have the option of disabling wpa3 if you think that's an issue.
