to see if the Client Link LED is off.

your computer to the extender.
Cannot join a WiFi network and receive an
error message
To join a WiFi network, you must know its network name (also called the SSID) so that
you can select it. If the network is secure, you must know the passphrase or key. If the
extender does not connect to the network that you select, the cause might be one of
the following:
• It is possible that you typed the network name, passphrase, or key incorrectly. Use
the Smart Setup (see Run the Smart Setup installation on page 19) to select a WiFi
network and retype the passphrase or key. The passphrase or key is case-sensitive.
For example, PASSWORD25 is not the same as Password25 or password25.
