Cannot connect WN3000RP-100Aus Extender

I'm trying to connect this to my network, it doesn't find the network via the WPS buttons and I can't fathom how to connect via the web. I have a desktop that is connected via ethernet cable to a TP-Link modem that is also a wifi modem (model TD-W8960N). I am running windows 7 Home premium. As my PC does not connect to the modem via wifi I cannot connect the extender to my Network via the Network and sharing as described in the instructions to connect to the NETGEAR_EXT (SSID) as advised in point 1. How do I do this without having to go and buy a wifi set up for my desktop?

1. Connect to NETGEAR_EXT.

2. Open a browser and access mywifiext.net.

3. Connet to your TPLink SSID and type the password of that existing network.

4. It will ask you to create a new SSID for your extender and set the password. 

5. Go to your wifi adapter connections and connect to the new extender SSID. 

6. Click on Continue and Internet should work after.
