TL-WA850RE extender doesn't work with new BT Smarthub

Model: TL-WA850RE  
Hardware Version: V7
Firmware Version: TL-WA850RE(UK)_V7_200923

I have this wireless range extender, which worked perfectly with my previous BT/Plusnet router.

Now having just received a new BT Smarthub, it fails to establish an Internet connection.

 

I've installed the latest firmware, and tried changing the router from 'Smartscan' to a specific channel. It's not working.

 

Can anyone help please?

Doh! Simple solution to this. I'd changed the host network Wifi password, and not updated it on the extender. Stupid me. Although in my defence, the extender gave no indication that the password was incorrect.
