Yesterday, I bought an EAX15 WiFi Mesh Extender to have 2 exts. I MIS-set the passwords for them
Both are set up as extensions of my AT&T router/modem, and should have the SAME password as it, but
in a rush I used a different first 4 characters. Now, how (possibly through NIGHTHAWK on my mobile) can
I change those passwords?
In fact, NIGHTHAWK seems to be telling me that the password for the AT&T router/modem is now the same
wrong password as the 2 extenders.
Please help.

Assuming you can connect a wireless client to the SSID (the wireless network name) using the wrong wireless PSK password:
Alternate approach would be a factory reset of both your extenders, and re-configure from scratch.
