unable to get into my router settings

When i try to enter the router website, I get shown to NEW EXTENDER SETUP and i enter all the relevent information but nothing happens after i click next. It just doesn't respond. How do i get past this so i can log into my router.

  • Sounds like you're trying to connect to the extender. 

    are you trying to access the router using the routers IP address? 

    Did the extender setup fine? 

    Have you tried a different browser? Pc?

      Tried using different different browser and still doesn't work. Tried entering my default extender IP address and it displays "Took too long to respond".

        the default IP address will change based on your router. 

        Log into your router and lookup what IP address the extender is connecting on. 

        Use that to try to access it.
