I replaced my router, so I needed to reinstall this extender. I reset the extender to factory defaults, then worked throught the procedure for "connecting with WPS". The extender shows up on the list of available wireless networks, but when I attempt to login the extender does not accept the network password.
Not WN3000RPv2 or WN3000RPv3? Look for "Model" on the product label.

_Which_ 'the procedure for "connecting with WPS"'? Are you following some set of instructions or other? Which you found where, exactly?

"login" to what? From what? How?
> [...] the extender does not accept the network password.
Says who? When you do what, exactly? Are you reading some message or other, someplace or other?
_Which_ "the network password"? If you're using WPS, then what are you doing with _any_ "the network password"? As the WN3000RP Installation Guide says (page 6):
WPS lets you easily join a secure Wi-Fi network without typing the network name and password. [...]
At least one of us is confused.
Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your (actual) model number, and look for Documentation. Get the User Manual (at least). Read. Follow instructions? If questions or problems persist, then you might return here with a precise, accurate description of what you did, and what happened when you did it. (Not a vague mess about which "procedure" you followed, and what did _not_ happen when you did whatever you did.)

That seems to have a "WPS button". Did you use it?
Im sorry if I sound like an idiot, but this is not something I do every day. I did download the instructions for this extender and followed them word for word. I followed instructions for both options: 1) connecting with WPS and 2) connecting with a web browser. In both cases when it came to the step where I connect the extender to my wifi network, I was prompted for the wifi network password. After entering the password and waiting for a few minutes, I was presented with a message telling me I had entered the wrong network password. I verified the password by logging in with other devices. I then tried logging in again, but got the same message saying the password was incorrect.
