EX6150 can't RE-setup

I moved to a new house and am trying to REinstall my EX6160 extender, but am having problems.  The extender contains data from my old network, and I am running into roadblocks when I try to connect with my PC, (which has a network adaptor).I have connected with my iPhone.

Is there a way to delete the data on the extender, so I can start fresh?

      Hello ValpoSpartan, 

       

      Please factory reset the extender by pressing on the small black button on the side with a needle. After doing so, you will be able to run through the setup for your new home.
