WiFi range extender
I have a new broadband provider and router they provided, Technicolor dga0122nlk. I can connect to my extender via wps
My devices can see the extender but when I try to connect by typing in my router password i am told it is the wrong password but I know the password is correct. The extender worked perfectly well on my previous router. I have also reset the extender. Can someone please help???

Try installing the extender using the installation assistant. WPS can get coded different and cause issues.
so factory reset the extender and try the assistant. don't use WPS
- I have downloaded a WiFi network manager and reset the extender. The manager sees NETGEAR_EXT, the device links lights, click on the _EXT and it opens a browser, msn, type in mywifiext it takes me to a netgear page saying “ you are not connected to your extender’s network”. So what do I do now?
try hardwiring the ex2700 into your pc/laptop that you're using for setup. Just make sure to disable the pc/laptops wireless so its not defaulting back to the wireless connection.
