With both WAX615 powered over PoE, and connected to a switch - assuming the switch does provide access to the Internet infrastructure - what is the point to enable this Mesh more on one or both APs?
With fully wired WAX6xx only, none operating as a wireless mesh station, there is no reason to use the Advance Mesh Configuration.
Don't put the Mesh Mode to Auto, Extender Only, or Root Only. Keep it running with Disable Mesh

Swap the WAX615 for a test. In case the issue does move with the AP it might be a hardware issue, so head to https://my.netgear.com and file a warranty ticket. In case the issue is limited to one connection, You know where to look for.
