Password creation

How do I rename and give a password to my network ( wifi signal booster adapter ) it is now Netgear.ext with no password and people are using it . I get kicked off my own wifi now and it's impossible to stream anything without interruption. I was great for 3 wks . I have no idea how to give it a password

Re: Password creation

While connected to the Extender SSID (Netgear.ext as your description) open a browser and access http://mywifiext.net/ - this should give you access to the Netgear WiFi Range Extender.

 

In Settings -> Wireless you should find the Network Name (SSID) and rhe ability to set the WiFi password to the exsitng network password (or the main router), or configure a different password.
