EX6120 security update
Can't get Netgear to connect to this extender. It's been up and running for years, but when I try to do security update by several diff means, I can't get Netgear to acknowledge that it's there.
router isn't Netgear, it's PACE.
OK, figured out how to log onto router. discovered why extender was invisible - it had a diff IP Address. Thanks for your help. Pls, pls add instructions to process for extenders.
Can you give some more detail on the issue you are having?

Thanks for getting back to me.
There was a link in the security alert. When I clicked upon it, I was advised that there was no Netgear product on my network. I then tried downloading the firmware, but once again could not communicate with the Netgear product.
This is very strange because the product is working and I get a Wi-Fi signal from at that I can use.
I suggest directly logging into the extender via www.mywifiext.net and then checking the firmware from there I would not do it from a email link.

I guess I wasn't clear in my earlier messages. I've already done this. Even though my computer tells me I'm connected, the URL you suggested tells me I'm not.
