The password will automatically be the same. There is no need to enter it into an additional field.

That wouldn't really make it a "repeater" then would it?

Your configuration isn't supported in the GUI, you can change the password at the command line only.

The command line can be accessed by following the instructions here: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=8505

The config file is /etc/config/wireless.
There is going to be one section for your connection to the upstream AP, and one for the repeater. Change the password in the repeater section only, then reboot the router.
