EX6100V2 Extender - Change router SSID
Our extender was set up with an incorrect name for the router WiFi SSID - it points to another access point in the house, instead of to the WiFi port set up in the router. I see no way to change ...
if you get to the installation page, its not installed. That only pops up if its not connecting/installed properly.
If I browse to the router using IP 192.168.1.254 while connecting via a "normal" SSID, the extender shows in the list of available SSIDs as "NETGEAR_EXT" but has no IP.
While connected via "NETGEAR_EXT" I can browse to "myWiFiExt" but the only result I can get is the Extender Installation page.
I'm stuck!

I think I've got it now - never satisfactorily completed the installation by bringing up http://miwifiext page, which actually completed it (best I can tell).
[I found this last page in the installation process to be somewhat unclear. I waas simply checking the Continue box and moving on:]I am now able to connect via the extender SSIDs and access internet pages. Huzzah!
glad to hear you got it figured out!
