Setup issues

I have set up my new Netgear EX6150 WiFi extender using the WPS set up process, and I do see the two MyNetworkname_2GEXt and the _5GEXT networks.  However, when I try and connect a mobile device to eithe rof these networks, i don't get an internet connection.

    1. what router are you using?

    2. firmware on the extender?

    3. I'd recommend re-running setup using the installation wizard and not wps. Different device makers code wps different. It can create issues which is why there's also the setup wizard. Try that.
