I cannot connect to the extender because it’s saying incorrect password when I try conecting. When I go to that website it just says you are not connected, even tho I am connect to the main modem

You are saying that you can't connect to the extender wifi? Did you reset the extender?
- LeejohnstAug 19, 2018StarThe extender is connected to the modem. But all devices say ‘incorrect password’ when trying to connect to the extender.
Yes I’ve factory reset the extender multiple times- StephenBAug 19, 2018Guru - Experienced User
Do you have a device that you can connect to the extender's ethernet?

The extender is connected to the router by wps, I have the green lights on the extender. It’s the extender I cannot connect anything to.
I can see the extender in my WiFi list, but it says ‘incorrect password’ even tho I am entering the same password as the router.
Please see link to someone having the same issue as me. The solution is not working for me tho. I hope this helps...
