N300 WiFi Range Extender EX2700
Hi,
I have just changed my broadband from Sky to Vodafone and have a new Router. The Router is connected to my Netgear N300 range extender and I can connect my PC to the _EXT WiFi via WPS on the extender. What I cannot do is connect any of my i-phones or Mac's to the extender as it always asks for the WPA2 password and I do not know where to find this. Is it a WPA2 password for the router or the extender? I do not have one for either and have looked on sites for both pieces of equipment.
I was connected to the _EXT on my Sky broadband, but don't know how. Any help greatfully received, but please keep it simple!
Many thanks.

The way wps works is it should copy the password from the router.
Problem is that wps isn't always coded the same.
If you setup using wps and some devices aren't working, factory reset the extender and install it using the installation wizard instead of wps.
