http://mywifiext.local FAILS TO CONNECT

The setup instructions say to go to http://mywifiext.local to set up my AC1900 WiFi Range Extender on Mac OSX. But that link FAILS to connect. Tried al my browsers, but none are able to find that web site.

Hi @DOUG-H,

                       Try 192.168.1.250. If it fails, try from different device or browser. If issue persist, reset and try again.

Hi @sheepshead,

                             mywifiext.local applies only for accessing EX7500 and EX8000 from MAC and iOS devices. Please try mywifiext.net from devices connected to extender. If it doesn't work, use the IP address assigned to extender by your router to access it.
