Why are they any different at all? One would expect the menu to be similar since they are part of the same family.
Honestly I don't care what the GUI looks like, if the device operates properly once configured, but my RAX120 and two EAX80s have me checking on them weekly and little things like lack of GUI consistency are becoming enough to make me want to switch all my equipment to something more professional. I can't even tag the EAX80 AX6000 as a model in this community post, that is how lacking the support for it seems.
I have been wondering same thing... seems Netgear is very inconsistent. I read on another forum that Netgear no longer employs programmers and all software development is outsourced to a contractors. Netgear is only in charge of design and may have been designed by different teams at different times.
