EX6120 ROUTER PASSWORD REJECTED
I am trying to setup the extender but everytime i go to connect to the extending connections it will not accept my router password. I have tried on different devices. I have factory reset and tried again. I have also chaged my wifi router passowrd which has been accepted through the original connection on devices but again the extending connections wont accept it.

Are you connecting the extender to the router via wps?
What router are you connecting it to?
Have you tried setting up the extender using the installation assistant and not WPS?
- GreenBean94AspirantThe router is Vodafone.
Yeah I was using WPS. I tried via the Web setup but can't go any further as I need to be connected to the extended connection and can't as won't accept password.
Where is the installation assistant?Factory reset the extender.
Push and hold reset for 7-15 seconds while its powered on.
Here's the video for how to use the installation assistant.
