How do I add a wifi password to my EX6410 extender to stop neighbours using my wifi?

At the moment my extender has no password so anyone can connect to it. How do I add a password to stop my neighbours using it?

    You can log into it using its ip address or mywifiext . net and go into the settings to add a wifi password. 

    There's a support site with access to manuals, firmware, install guides, etc.
    Go to https://www.netgear.com/support/
    Type in your model number and from there it'll take you to the above.
    Its a great resource to start with.
