How to put a password on my NETGEAR EX2700-100UKS?
I have recently bought the NETGEAR EX2700-100UKS to extend the wireless connection in my flat but it doesn't appear to have a password to access it as a connection meaning anybody in a remote distance could log onto my wireless network without any trouble.
Does anyone know how to put a password on the Netgear EXT network which is what I connect to when this device is turned on? I am working off a Macbook Pro.
Thanks,
Ollie

The options are shown on page 17 of the manual;

You can either set your own password or repeat the password set at the base-station (router).

Hi Andy,
When clicking on the link it asks me for a password? I have inputted the one I use for my wireless network along with my email but it is saying access denied?

I have tried using the password in an account setup email I originally received from Netgear and also the password I log into the web site but neither seem to authenicate access?
