Yes I have set this up correctly. Everything work as intended except extending the wifi.

Yes the netgear nighthawk app is picking up the extender as shown.

I tried the WPS again. No luck. I’m not sure how the extender is automatically populating the wifi and pw but it is. It’s just not extending the network. It’s acting like a device on the network not an extender.

Yes wps. It clones the r3 network, and uses the same name and pw. I set it up right next to it after factory reset. Extender is picked up in the DumaOS app and netgear app. Only concern is in the xr500 software it showed other devices connected to it now it just displays the extended and nothing connected to it

Upgraded from the xr500. Been on the new r3 for roughly 5 days now. Only major problem I have is that my extender is not.. extending. The eax80 is under my devices with great connection in the DumaOS app. When I open the net gear app it’s showing as an extender. Am I missing something? This was working perfectly with the xr500. I factory reset the extender and it automatically picked up the new r3 and network name. Please help thanks gents. Happy new years.
