RAX200 EX8000 Configuration That Works
Is there any configuration tested and confirmed in NetGear labs that allows an RAX200 router to connect and function with an EX8000 range extender? Have latest firmware and full factory resets on both multiple times but the EX8000 always eventually locks and becomes non-functional. It always worked great with my Netgear R8500 but with the RAX200 does not fucntion correctly?

I've currently got an RAX200 and and EX8000 running (as backup).
RAX200 is running firmware version 1.0.3.106
EX8000 is on: 1.0.1.232
Its been stable the whole time. Like I said, I'm using it as a backup as I test a different system (wife doesn't like using potentially unstable setups).
You can always try reinstalling the firmware to the system, then do a full factory reset on both with clean install (by clean: not using a backup configuration).
