Are XAV2101 and XAVN2001 compatible?
I've checked the specs for the XAV2101 and XAVN2001, and neither mention the other as a compatible option, yet I don't see why?:mad: Any insight welcome.

Just out of interest: since last posting here I've synced an XAVN2001 (with a long extension lead) with an XAV2101 and it works a treat!
Small tip: if extending your WiFi is your priority (or even if it isn't!), if your two WiFi 'bubbles' (start picturing Netgear's illustrations) are crossing over like normal extenders (or in my case, virtually on top of one another), then you'll need to give the extender a different SSID, whereas if the XAVN2001 is away far enough so that the 'bubbles' aren't touching, you'll be able to use the same SSID as on your router.
