PLW1000 Wifi Extender Password reset
I am trying to use my PLW1000 wifi extender and plug it in and get a signal but when i go to connect to the new wifi extension it asks for a password. I dont know how to change this password to what it was. I used the factory password "PASSWORD" but still no luck....can anyone help. Thanks in advance.

the "admin" and "password" login are for logging into the gui, not to connect to the wireless.
and they're the defaults. If its been changed, then you'd need to factory reset to get back to stock.
the device should show the default wireless and password on the label for it. If you reset back to defaults, those should work.
