Community TeamI have the same dropping connection issue with my EX8000 extender connected to my R9000 x10. Any ideas to try? Can something be posted on this thread to try or sent to my inbox?

I have the same set up and constant loss of internet.
Have you recieved any help on this issue?
Thank you
- ntculenufDec 26, 2018AspirantThe RMA'd extender just showed up today. I still have the replacement one I bought connected. Haven't noticed any connectivity or IP address changes like with the original extender. Not sure if it's just a coincidence but I relocated my router (night hawk R8000) about 3ft higher. It's in the same location of the house just up higher. The network seems to be working better than before. Solid connectivity with connected equipment and extender. Who knows, like I said could be coincidental.

I, too, am losing connectivity in the same way--lights remain on and connected but no wifi. This has been going on for months occasionally but has increased to at least three or four times/day over the last week. Please advise. I do have the latest firmware.

had this same problem using Netgear - Nighthawk X10 AD7200 Tri-band Wi-Fi Router with ex8000 to extend the range, i have now split the 2.4 and 5 ghz channels and turned off smart connect on both the router and extender and so far seems to have solved the problem
