HOW TO RECONNECT NETGEAR WIFI EXTENDER

i HAD CHANGED THE PASSWORD ON MY ORIGINAL WIFI ROUTER, I TRIED USING THE NEW PASSWORD ON THE WIFI EXTENDER AND DIDN'T WORK. MY BROTHER IN LAW DECIDED TO RESTORE FACTORY SETTINGS AND NOW IT WON'T CONNECT TO THE ROUTER AND I CANNOT LOGIN INTO THE EXTENDER WHEN i FIND IT'S NAME ON WIFI SETTINGS. WHAT CAN I DO, IF ANYTHING?

    Try to reset the extender again by holding the reset button for 10 + seconds and try the setup process again.
