Is that the WN3000RP listed in your subject? (V1, 2 or 3?) That is not an "extended router" so much as a WiFi Range Extender.

 

If you "see" it on the network, then you may be able to find its IP address. Put that into a browser and, if you know the password for the User Name account (the defaults are admin, which you can't change, and password) perhaps you can get into the browser graphical user interface and adjust the settings.
