Incorrect Login Credentials

After accessing the extender’s login window, it is necessary to enter the username and password appropriately. Also for this case, take and note down the login details from the setup manual before starting the login process.

• Start the extender’s reset process and let it complete the process.
• Soon the configured settings and login details will be discarded.
• Now, you can use the default login password and can set a new one.

Clear Cookies And Caches

Sometimes, the issue might not be with the extender itself, but with the browser that you are using currently. So, to fix that, clear the browser’s cookies and caches from the settings.

Go to the settings and then privacy and security and click on the Delete Caches And Cookies option. Clearly, this will remove the temporary files and malware data from the device. As a result, the web browser will start working well and allow you to log in to the extender.
