Netgear AC1200 WiFi Range Extender
HI
I have 2 of these extenders, worked great until I had to change out my modem and get a new password.
I followed online instructions (or so I thought) to get these wirelessly connected.
However, I am doing something wrong.
These are too new to be damaged.
Anyone have simple easy step by step instructions?
I can follow...but I must have missed something on the online tutorial
Original set up was easy peasy...now new modem with a new password is screwing up so much. Help if you can. Thanks much

Anytime you swap out modems/routers its best to reset the extender back to factory and redo the installation from stock.
Did you do this?
If not, hold the reset button for 7-10 seconds (while powered on) until the lights change. Let it go through the reset and bootup and then try redoing the install using the instructions.
