EX6120
My netgear EX6120 is brand new straight out the box. It has been setup and connected to my router. The extender network won’t accept the correct password and I can’t login to the extender network sett...
What router did you connect it to?
What firmware is on the extender?
Did you set it up using the push button WPS option?
If so, factory reset the extender and set it up using the installation assistant.
To factory reset, push and hold the reset button for 7-15 seconds while powered on.
Here's a video of how to use the assistant.

Hi, I used WPS initially and the extender connected to my Vodafone router, but when I tried to join the extended network it would not accept the correct WiFi network password. I have done a factory reset and tried setting up using the assistant method, which has worked in so far as it accepted the password for both 2GEXT & 5GEXT extended networks, but only the 2GEXT network is giving internet access. I can connect to the 5GEXT network but I can’t access the internet, but that maybe an issue with my router/network.
