Wifi range extender won't accept router password

Hi there,

I have followed all WPS set up instructions and got all of my green lights, but cannot connect any devices to the _EXT network using my recognised router password??

 

Can anybody suggest what I should do next.

 

Many thanks in advance

    Reset the extender with a paper clip, and this time set it up without pressing WPS.

     

    Join the NETGEAR_EXT network and browse to www.mywifiext.net to complete the setup.
