DarrenM,
Just reinstalled the firmware recently using a hard wired ethernet connection, the extender works well with all devices now. I also found out that there is a compatibility issue running netgear's genie app for my MAC running OSX El Capitan. I closed the app prior to reflashing the firmware, so not sure if the reflash of the firmware, or shutting down the genie app fixed my issue. I was advised to delete the genie app from my computer until apple and netgear resolve the issue. Thanks for all your help through my issue.

Thanks for that tip if that was what caused the issue.
