What told you that?
But every time i try to connect to the router on the app it says we cant find your router and it will never connect and now that i have properly reset it i cannot connect to in in the NH app.
Connect to what router? The EX7300v2 is an extender.
Remember that after you reset the EX7300v2 it will revert to the original settings. So you need to set it up again yo work with this unknown router.

What app are you setting it up with? iOS? If so, make sure icloud relay and private mac/ip address are disabled.
If you factory reset it by pushing and holding reset for 7-15 seconds while powered on, you should be back at stock settings, You can use the installation assistant to set it up. Have you tried this?
Here's a video of how: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJVklshxBMk
Where is it failing in the process?
Also, keep in mind the EX7300 is a mesh extender. Its not going to have a separate ssid (name) after setup if you use wps or the default installation assistant settings.
