Hi AngelaNZ,
Please clarify which WN3000RP version you are using.
Use an ethernet cord and connect your WN3000RP with a computer. (then temporarily disable the computer's WiFi networks, and disconnect from any other internet connections)
Open a web browser and go to mywifiext.net
The credentials are:
user = admin
password = password
Go to Wireless Settings, under Security Options, you can view/modify your Extender's WiFi password
Otherwise, you can reset the WN3000RP back to factory defaults and complete the setup again
You can press and hold the Factory Settings button on the side panel for 7 seconds.
The Extender resets, and returns to its factory settings.
