If you used the WPS setup, the network should use the same password as your router network.
Have you tried that?

Yes. Everything has setup properly I believe I've even got the Netgear genie app showing me that everything is hooked up it's just when I go to sign on to the actual site for the extender it says internet is not available. It's mind-boggling to me the only thing I can think of is the MAC address and what not is not in my router but every time I go to get in my router that's through spectrum Askey model I can't sign in tells me unavailable the site

Are you connecting to the extender network when you browse to www.mywifiext.net?
- timothybarrier7Dec 16, 2018AspirantYeah.... I'm all the way to this point hopefully this photo shows you what I'm referring to... I have the extender hook to the network here at my home but I can't get connection out of it when I try to use my cell phone or pad all it says internet may not be available and then I have to sign back over to my home network

So that setup looks perfectly ok. The only odd thing is that it is showing no client connections. Normally there would be at least one (the device that you used to set up the extender).
Is that device connected to the extender's ethernet cable? Or is it connected to the router directly?
