I am actually having 2 separate issues but I believe they are connected. I use a Netgear EX6150v2 range extender in my home. Sometime ago an issue arose where even when I turn it on, it will connect to my home network but it won't actually work as intended...

What happens when you try? Any useful error messages?

.... when I try to switch over to that extender, I put my credentials in and I get this an error that reads "Logon timed out, please try again. If this issue persists, try rebooting your device". I have rebooted, reinstalled, wiped caches on the app, even factory reset the extender and nothing seems to have fixed it.

There's a problem with the latest version of the Nighthawk app. (I assume that this is what you are using.) Lots of discussions around here with the same symptoms.

Here's one:

While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.

You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:
