1. what router did you connect it to?
2. what method of setup did you use? WPS, the installation assistant, the app?
3. a screensnip of the browser error you get might help

Usually with the site notice, there's a way around it.

here's a video of methods you can try.
to find out what channel for 5ghz, log into your router and check it
- Managed to logon to 6120 after clearing browser history
5GHz is using router channels 100(p) +104+108+112, router is set to auto
5GHz on 6120 is set as:
Wireless AP on
Broadcast name on
Wifi protected setup configured
Wifi channel auto
Wifi password same as existing network
Any ideas ? - Vodafone router I think is a THG3000 intelligent WiFi hub
- 5GHz on router is auto and channels allocated are 100(p)+104+108+112
Try changing your 5ghz wifi to either 36-48 or 149-165.
I don't believe the EX6120 supports the dfs channels.
If that doesn't work, take a look at the vodafone forums. There's a ton of posts about that router and not working with extenders. maybe its gotten an update but there's a bunch without any clear answer.
