EX8000 loosing configuration on power cycle

I purchased the EX8000 over a year ago to add to my home network and the Netgear R9000.  It seems that after a recent FW upgrade, my extender will loose its configuration during any power-cycle, forcing me to set it up from scratch.  This is a major headache for me, as the "Nighthawk" android app gets to the point of connecting to the two wifi networks, but comes back with "Incorrect Password" for both 2.4 and 5 Ghz networks.  I've tried the WPA2 selections of TKIP and AES with the same issue.

I'm up for suggestions as the connectivity issues I've had with this configuration is disappointing.  Adding that the EX8000 looses its configuration in an attempt to fix it is simply frustrating.

Any help is appreciated.
