EX6400v2 Extender IP Does not Appear in Ubee Router DHCP Client list
My friends replaced an old WN3000RP extender with an EX6400v2. It has the latest 134 firmware in it. It has not worked well so far. The typical problem is after awhile you can still connect to it but there is no internet access on either band. Unplugging it and plugging it back in corrects the problem for awhile. It has been defaulted and reconfigured. One thing I find strange is the DHCP IP it picks up for http://mywifiext does not appear in the client list of the Ubee cable modem/router it is linked to. The other two MAC addresses appear but not the IP for http://mywifiext. I have now restricted the DHCP space to 100 and configured the extender for .202 and it appears in the list as a static IP. Has anyone else experienced any of these issues?

Was it setup using wps or using the installation assistant?
For some reason, WPS would not work. I also wanted to be able to easily differentiate between connections so I didn't use One Wifi Name. Not a fan of the integrated wifi in the Ubee modem. They had problems with their Nighhawk 1750 so they ended up with the Ubee wifi when the Spectrum tech showed up and replaced their old modem that wasn't capable of higher speeds.
have you assigned a static ip address to the extender in the ubee interface?
