Can't access settings for PL1000v2
What am I doing wrong here? How can I access the settings. I just needed to change the broadcast channel and now the ssid and password since resetting.

Re: Can't access settings for PL1000v2
Log into the router that you're connecting the set it. It should have a connected device (or equivelent page)
Look at that page for what IP address the router is assigning to the powerline adapter and use that ip address to access it.

I can no longer access the settings page for my powerline extender.
What settings page? The PL1000 has no settings and no IP address.
If you have a system with a wifi access point, that would be the PLW1000.
In that case, as @plemans says you need to track down its IP address and aim a browser at that.

I've also tried using the genie app and it says the same thing despite showing my connection to be from the extender.
You refer to the genie. This could be one of several things, the browser interface, a Windows or Mac program for a PC, or a mobile Android/iThing app. Netgear labels them all as genies. Which are you using?
The desktop program will show a map if the devices on your network. This should include the PLW1000. Click on its icon and the IP address should reveal itself. It might even be "clickable".
