N300 wifi extender first time set up being routed to username/password login page
Trying to connect with the installation assistant I have my device connected to netgear_ext and enter the mywifiext.net but redirected to /login page instead of new extender set up page.

You can try to connect the extender another way to the router. Try to use WPS I linked a KB on how to do this below.

- EndymionIIAspirantHi Darren,
Thanks for the reply. Tried connecting using the WPS buttons on device and router but no success.
