EX3700 can't access admin pages

When I load the main admin page I get presented with:

 Register page

 

Clicking the "New extender setup" button shows a registration from. When the form is submitted, I get returned to the previous screen (above screenshot) and the URL (location bar) displays the following:

At this point the "New extender setup" button doesn't work anymore (doesn't take me to the registration page).

Hello janeklb

 

Have you tried a different web browser or a diffrenet device for the setup? Also have you tried to factory reset the extender.

Re: EX3700 can't access admin pages

Hi DarrenM,

 

Looks like the issue had something to do with skipping the registration before configuring the extender.

I had initially browsed to www.mywifiext.net/start_repeater.htm (without submitting the registration form) and configured the device. Once that was done, I wasn't able to access the admin pages either by going directly to www.mywifiext.net/start_repeater.htm or by submitting the registration form.

I reset to factory settings, actually completed the registration process and then configured the device, and it's all working fine now.

Cheers
