Hi&nbsp;DOUG-H,&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Try 192.168.1.250. If it fails, try from different device or browser. If issue persist, reset and try again.

Hi&nbsp;sheepshead,&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;mywifiext.local applies only for accessing EX7500 and EX8000 from MAC and iOS devices. Please try mywifiext.net from devices connected to extender. If it doesn't work, use the IP address assigned to extender by your router to access it.
