    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.

    Are you able to log into your router and look at the attached devices and see if the extender is getting a new Ip address?

        depends on your router if its a netgear router you would go to 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 login with admin/password and then go to Advanced-Administration-Attached devices.
