Extender stopped working after firmware upgrade WN2000RPTv3

I updated my firmware to wn2000rptv3-V1.0.1.4.
My extender now only goes to an Account Registration page.
Nothing I try (mywifiext.net or .com or http://www.routerlogin.net) has helped.
While I didn't want to set up an Account, I tried to anyway.
After filling in all of the fields, the next button stayed grayed out.
It has not mattered how many times I tried, it still does the same.
I tried with 12, and 15 symbol passwords. No luck.
My extender is basically useless now unless someone can tell me how to fix this.
The extender was working like a champ before the upgrade.
Just goes to show that newer is not always better. 🙂
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks for the response DarrenM.
I followed the instructions but it wouldn't upgrade. I tried several times.
I finally restarted the computer and retried all of it over and VOILA, it worked like a charm.
I even braved up and updated it again and it took the firmware upgrade like a champ.
Not sure what I did wrong on the first upgrade.
Don't know what tomorrow will bring, but tonight I'm a happy camper.
Thank you very much!!!

Hello Stealthyman
You can try to downgrade the firmware using the TFTP method and then see if it will work agian. I linked how to do this below.
