WNCE4004 will not connect

Hi, it's already a while ago, since this topic came up. But just want to say I encounter the same problem. I just bought an extender EX7300 and replaced my EX6200 which I still use it but in another configuration. I thought this EX7300 is downward compatible. But obviously not. I wanted to connect the wnce4004 to the new extender but no luck. It refuses to connect to the EX7300 extender. Tried WPS and manual via ethernet cable connected to my laptop. And it's indeed not the wnce4004. Cause it connects fast and easy to my Vodafone easy.box as well as to my ex6200. But not to my new EX7300. So what is wrong with that?
Any ideas and maybe a solution? So far I've found nothing which could help to connect the wnce4004 to the EX7300.
Thanks a lot.
Hi fscout42,
Do you have other wireless devices that works with the EX7300?
Hello James, yes I have. A Samsung TV, a mini-PC and my receiver (Yamaha RX-V777). All devices seem to connect except this wnce4004.
Hi fscout42,
Will it work if you will connect it directly to the routers network?
Hello James,
yes, it does connect to my Vodafone EasyBox as well as to my Netgear router R7000. No problems at all with these devices. Only the EX7300 refuses the connection.
That's the current setup now. The thing is the distance. It's not very good.
