Hello - I am trying to connect my wifi extender N300 for the first time. Â The web address (www.mywifiext.net) does not work when I type it in. Â Also, I am unable to find the Wifi network NETGEAR_EXT which the directions say I should see under my computer's network manager. Â Can someone offer some guidence on troubleshooting these first time set up issues?
Thanks!
Stephen
