How to access configuration panel when SSID is the same

Hello, I've just configured my EX3700. So long I'm pretty satisfied.

But I noticed once I set the extended SSID to be equal to the original wifi, I'm not able to access the configuration panel (http://mywifiext.com/) anymore.

In attachment what I see on that url.  I'm not clear where are the instruction..

  • Easiest way to access it would be through the router. You don't put what router you have so I can only go over generals.

    Log into your routers access page. there should be an attached devices page or equivelent. On this page, it'll list your EX3700 and the ip address for it. You can type that ip address into your browser and use this to access the extender.

    here's your support page with manuals, firmware, and installation guide.
