EX2700 extend antenna
I need to pass a wifi signal through a metal wall. I cannot drill a hole in the wall but I can go underneath it. I was wondering if the antennas on the EX2700 are removable? My idea is to remove on...

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:
WiFi Range Extenders & Nighthawk Mesh - NETGEAR Communities
You might like to search there for messages related to your issue.
I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.

If the EX2700 gets its Internet access with a wired connection, in AP mode, then you may not need to get the drill out. Powerline Ethernet could bridge the gap and feed the Internet from the router to the extender over the mains circuit.
