AX1600 extender will not connect after many resets
I bought a new Netgear RS100 router, after setting up my ax1600 extender it won't connect. I set it up so the wifi id is the same. When i walk to the area I am having the range issue with, I can see that it changes to the extenders wifi but when it tries to connect, it can't find the ip address. I have done many resets.
I only wanted 5G extender and unchecked 2.4 GH but it is still showing up
So you cleared 5ghz using the web ui setting on pages 29-30 of the manual?
Is One-WiFi turned off?

Can you connect to the RS100 wifi from your clients when at the extender location (with the extender turned off)?
yes
Thank you your response, I was able to set one of the extenders, I only wanted 5G extender and unchecked 2.4 GH but it is still showing up, my ecobee doesn’t like it and loses connectivity because of it. I try signing into the extender but it thinks it's not set but it is and is working.
