How do I change the Wi-Fi key password on my Powerline adaptor?

I would like to change the Wi-Fi key password on my Netgear PL1000 powerline adaptor to match the one I currently use on my home router.

How do I go about doing that?

Re: How do I change the Wi-Fi key password on my Powerline adaptor?

There's 2 versions of that powerline device. both should be pretty similar. 

connect to the powerline wifi. go to mywifiext.net   default login should be admin  default password is password  -- if you changed it, you'll need to know your password.

from settings you should be able to change wifi ssid and password.  I don't have this device so I'm going off the manual.  here's the link to version 1's support page. It has a manual included. You can click over to version 2 at the top if thats the version you have. Follow the manual and it walks you though changing the ssid and password.
