Hi Plemans! Thank you for your attention,

 

Yes I tried to use installation assistant

but nothing, sometimes it's brought me only connection 5GHz

 

Lynksys don't have WPS button, but I made experiment.

 

I have another router - D-link Archer AX50 with WPS

 

and after "Your extender has successfully connected to your existing WiFi network." (look screenshot pls)

its brought ONLY 5GHz connection but 2.4 - not working....

I think probably it's problem with firmware of ex7300v2? (

 

Any ideas? 

Thanks!

Your photo shows both connected. 

What firmware are you on for it?

      you could try downgrading a version and reinstalling using the assistant. 

      Also factory reset it after reinstalling the firmware. maybe something is corrupt in the firmware or settings
