Hi Fedew,
Good day!
Welcome to NETGEAR Community!
Thank you for reaching out. Have you tried using a wired connection to set up the extender? What is the model of your extender? Please try to do a 30-30-30 reset.
- Perform 30-30-30 Reset: Press reset button for 30 seconds. While holding, unplug extender for 30 seconds, power on, hold 30 seconds.
- After a router has been reset, log in to it with the default IP address, username, and password that it was originally configured with.
Please do not hesitate to let me know if you need further assistance.
Regards,
Oliver

I don’t think that was an extender’s problem but the netgear genie, the page that automatically shows up when you configure the device.
Eventually I managed to log in but without setting anything new.
Thank you for your support- olympos1625Jul 29, 2021NETGEAR Employee Retired
