Range extender WN3000RP connection to new router

Have been successfully using a Netgear WN3000RP range extender for some time now but on trying to change over to new internet provider and their modem (Vodafone WiFi Hub) having trouble connecting it.  I have paired the devices but when selecting the new range extender name and entering the same network security key I use to connect to the modem directly it says the network security key isn't correct.

    Mozzie,

     

    Factory reset the extender by pressing on the small black button using a pin for 15+ seconds then join the NETGEAR_EXT wifi network using a phone or laptop. After you connect to the NETGEAR_EXT network with your phone or laptop, browse to www.mywifiext.net and follow the setup instructions.
