Issues connecting to mesh extender

Hi, I am trying to connect my mesh extender to my Netduma R2 but am having issues. The mesh extender I am using is the Netgear X6 model EX7700. I can't connect via WPS because the R2 does not support this function. I tried connecting via wireless with the Nighthawk app but no luck. I follow the steps but once I am supposed to connect my extender to the R2 they won't connect. I am unsure if there is a setting in the routers software that will make this possible. Anyone with experience in the situation is welcome.

Your best bet is to wire into the extender with a pc or Mac, if not possible an iPad can set it up but I never use the app as it’s not great.

if you can’t wire up use a tablet, phone and connect to extenders WiFi then click the link below and select the right link in the document.

worth noting it can be hit or miss with devices behind these as a wireless repeater but in Access mode all devices show as wired. Off course access mode is a wired connection from the R2 to extender.
