Hello janeklb

 

Have you tried a different web browser or a diffrenet device for the setup? Also have you tried to factory reset the extender.

Hi DarrenM,

 

Looks like the issue had something to do with skipping the registration before configuring the extender.

I had initially browsed to www.mywifiext.net/start_repeater.htm (without submitting the registration form) and configured the device. Once that was done, I wasn't able to access the admin pages either by going directly to www.mywifiext.net/start_repeater.htm or by submitting the registration form.

I reset to factory settings, actually completed the registration process and then configured the device, and it's all working fine now.

Cheers
