Hello Silly_gardener

 

You will want to log into the extender to setup the wireless network for the extender you will want to have a computer connected to the extender on the network and then type www.mywifiext.net into your browser here it should ask for a login which you will use admin/password to login. Now you should be able to set the wireless password to what you want.
