N300 wifi extender

All my lights are green but, when I connect on my android, it says ,
"You are connecting to an unsecured network "Netgear_ext" . Information sent is not encrypted and may be visual to others. On show advanced options, it says, or shows DHCP, and on PROXY, it asks for PAC url. What is that? Again, I'm on an Android phone

    Hello Jerry6301

     

    Are you able to tell your phone to forget the network and connect again? Do you have a wireless password setup on your router and extender?
