Extender connected to router but no Internet

I switched broadband provider today, to get better speeds. I factory reset my Netgear extender and connected it to the new router via WPN. Lights turned green and I can see the extender [name].ext popping up in my devices with full wifi signal showing. However, when I try to connect a device to the extender it will tell me "connected, no internet" and that is even with the extender plugged in right next to the router. Connecting my devices directly to my new provider's router works fine, Anyone has any experience with this? 

Model: WN3000RPv3|N300 WiFi Range Extender

Hi lyafiyah, 

 

After performing a factory reset on the extender, join the NETGEAR_EXT network. Open a web browser and browse to www.mywifiext.net and follow the setup instructions.
