AC1200 range extender won’t accept WiFi password
I have set up the range extender and linked it to my WiFi. It has created two new WiFi network names but neither of them will accept my WiFi password. The password is correct and I have reset the extender and tried it again and it still doesn’t work.

Did you set it up using the push button WPS option?
If so, factory reset the extender and set it up using the installation assistant.
To factory reset, push and hold the reset button for 7-15 seconds while powered on.
Here's a video of how to use the assistant.
