How come my nighthawk won’t connect to my router? It randomly disconnected and I can’t figure out why it won’t reconnect to my network.

No idea. Not even any information from you to begin to guess.
What are you doing and where does it go wrong?
While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge, and an extender is not a router.
You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.
In the meantime you could visit the support pages:
Support | NETGEAR
Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.
Check for various troubleshooting tips.
You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.
I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
