You should also check the passphrase that is used in the extended network that it is still the same as that of your existing router. When doing the smart installation don't forget to check the box use the same security ...as those of the existing network.

thank you nielsvds for your response!
Setting up a connection between the extender and the router is not a problem.
And all settings (security and passphrase) are the same.
and they connect without problems any time, like after an off/on of the extender or the router.
its the mobile client side were the problems are
they have the same settings (security and passphrase) but fail every time connecting to the extender.
connecting the mobile clients directly to the the router using those (same) settings is not a problem.
