Re: WiFi extender ask for security key. My WiFi security key won’t work.
So the extender is trying to connect to your router and the router won't accept the security key?
Just trying to figure out where the failure is.
Here's your support site with troubleshooting, the manual, firmware

I prefer to setup my extenders via a hardwired connection to a computer. It tends to go smoother.

Re: WiFi extender ask for security key. My WiFi security key won’t work.
So when you're going through the setup, you're able to connect your device to the extender but you're not able to connect the extender to the router?
Have you tried going in and changin the router's wireless password? Maybe something isn't compatible. Avoid special characters for the wifi password.
What I mean by hardwiring it taking an ethernet cable and connecting a pc/laptop to the extender for setup. Usually makes setup go smoother.

When you've hardwired in, just follow the same install procedure as you would normally. Go to mywifiext.net and it should allow you to connect with the extender for setup, firmware updates, etc.
