Hi.

I correctly connected (and used) the wifi extender to my home wifi net.

Then, the extender was disconnected from the electricity grid for a couple of days.

Now, my wifi net correctly works. I can see the extended net (_ext) but when I try to connect, it asks for the password (which has been never changed and correctly works in the unextended net) but I always receive the message "wrong password".

I hope to be clear.

Please excuse me for my bad English. 

Thanks for your help

Re: password

Try factory resetting it and reinstalling it. Maybe something was corrupted when the power was lost.

Re: password

Thank you.

I had already tried factory resetting without results.

I have been able to solve my problem by using two different passwords: one for the router and the other for the extender.
