Password Issue netgear wn3000

I'm not computer literate so please be kind.  I set my extender up and it worked perfectly well; however, I upgraded my router to a BT Smart Hub.  I reset the wifi extender back to factory settings and went through the install (manual setup by pushing the WEP buttons etc).  All the green lights came on but when I try to connect to the extender it keeps asking for a password.  I have tried all the passwords (old router, new router and admin password on the extender) but it does not recognise them.  Anyone else experienced this?

Hello Pelagia

 

Try to log into the extender again you may need to connect a ethernet cord directly from a pc to the extender or try to use a pc connected to your main router go to www.mywifiext.net login with admin/password and try to change the password then try that password to connect to it.
