are you setting up via wps or via the installation wizard?Which fritzbox?What firmware is on the extender?

Thanks for reply Trying to connect via WPSFritz is 7650Cannot find firmware version on extender - any ideas where/how todo this? When I try to access upgrade to firmware on this link I cannot access file https://www.netgear.com/support/product/WN3000RPV3.aspx#docs

Try running the install assistant and not wps. Not all device makers code wps the same.

Dont have an install assistant link? If you have one, please send it on.I already have a netgear extender working but when i try to add a new extender, I keep getting asked to register as a new user. I already have the product listed on netgear site under my account. Not sure why I need to re register when I already have. Very frustrating trying to solve this.
