Frequently Asked Questions You can find more information about your extenders in the user manual, which is available at downloadcenter.netgear.com. The NETGEAR installation assistant keeps asking me for my network password (passphrase) or security key, and I am sure that I entered the correct password. What can I do? The extender is probably placed at the borderline of the range covered by the router or access point. For more information, see Place the Extenders and Supply Power on page 5. If you are using WEP security, make sure that you are typing the network password in the correct field. Can I set up the extenders in extender mode if I connect them to the router or access point with an Ethernet cable? No. The extenders are designed to connect wirelessly to the router or access point if they are in extender mode. If the extenders are in access point mode, you can connect them to the router or access point with an Ethernet connection. For more information about access point mode, see Use the Extenders in Access Point Mode on page 13. 16
