WN2000RPTv2 password problem

I recently had to change my router and I'm having trouble with my extender. The extender is connected to the new router, but evertime I try to connect anything to the extender, it syas the password is not correct. I have tried unplugging and plugging in the extender and resetting the extender but still keep getting the same message. I try to connect with my Ipad, android phone and DirecTv, but all give the same message. Can anyone help me?

  • You are using the Wi-Fi password and not the admin password configured on the extender, correct?

     

    Did you change the Wi-Fi password on the extender after you connected it to the new router?  If not, try using the old Wi-Fi password.

     

     

    When you reset the extender, did you go through the initial setup procedure?  If so, what happened?  Were you able to set the Wi-Fi password?
