    I cannot get to the Netgear Status Screen!

    I only go to the Setup wizard when I go to http://www.mywifiext.net. It detects my surrounding networks and wants to reset up everything again! It's all ready configured!

    I need to change the default password and update the firmware.
    This is maddening! :mad:

    Apparently the extender did not complete the setup. :eek:
    I just resetted it and began over and now it is working (sort of.)

    The setup screen takes forever to populate.
    Well at least I changed the default password on it.

    Now that headache has been alleviated! :)
