routerlogin . net would be to connect to the router, not the extender.&nbsp;
the extenders would be mywifiext . net or its ip address from the router.&nbsp;
Did youo setup the extender using wps or using the installation assistant?

routerlogin.net is an&nbsp;internal&nbsp;website to configure your Netgear device and is&nbsp;unencrypted (http)&nbsp;which means the username and password you enter can be recovered when using packet sniffing.That is why you get that warning when you try to reach it in your webbrowser. Try what is said in this video:&nbsp;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPSPBOSCHpsIt will be similar for NETGEAR.Try to disable&nbsp;use private address:&nbsp;https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211227&nbsp;. That sometimes can give issues.
