Tell us a little bit more. How is this (assumable) wired network configured?

As per Insight, and/or based on the WAX dashboard?

Same SSID and security configured on the APs?

Well, if no device can associate with the WAX610Y it's a little bit much to expect any kind of wireless hand-over or roaming. There must be another explanation.

Are the wireless SSIDs (resp. the BSSIDs/radio MAC) on air and visible? Are the wireless radios turned on at all? If you have access to an Android phone, consider to try the (Netgear) WiFi Analytics (-> Network Status) or WiFi Analyzer, and open the "tree" under the SSID - there you should see the BSSIDs (MAC ID, misleadingly designated Mac ID on the Netgear App). 

If the AP Ethernet MAC is say 94-A6-7E-xx-xx-5F the radio MACs are ending on -4x and-6x when I have it right. Each SSID (or for specific applications there will be additional special "hidden" ones on air) does get a dedicated radio MAC on each radio.
