EX2700 password problem

Hello , just bought this and it connected to my wifi router but it won’t let me connect any device to it , keep telling me that password is incorrect .
I connected it to my vodafone wifi router trough WPS .
I’m putting in the same password i have for my router but it won’t take it. Please let me know what i can do , cheers
  • ISP supplied routers aren't known for their wps function being coded the same. This can create issues. Its also why Netgear has a secondary install method using the installation wizard.

    Factory reset the extender and follow the installation guide using the wizard and not using the wps method. See if that works.
