Thanks for the tips! I've updated my R7000 to the latest firmware, did a factory reset and reinstalled the router again. After this, I did a factory reset on the EX7000 (just to be sure) and reinstalled it too. I sat down next to the EX7000 and plugged in a cable to see whether I could get an IP address and an internet connection, which was the case.

So it seems to be working, I'll will test it a number of times the next couple of days to be sure.
Glad its up and working!
