Assume you talk of a EX7700 — AC2200 Nighthawk X6 Tri-Band WiFi Mesh Extender here.
As this is a pre-owned device, we suggest you to start with How do I perform a factory reset on my NETGEAR WiFi range extender?
This should bring back the default wireless name NETGEAR_EXT on air where you can associate your mobile device (or a computer) and either use the Nightawk App as shown in the Nighthawk X6 AC2200 Tri-Band WiFi Mesh Extender Model EX7700 Quick Start Guide - or use the Web browser based config using the "Connect With the NETGEAR Installation Assistant" as shown in the Nighthawk X6 AC2200 Tri-Band WiFi Range Extender p.14 ff.
Good luck!
Should the EX7700 assumption to be correct, I'll suggest a mod to move this thread to the WiFi Range Extenders & Nighthawk Mesh section.
