NETGEAR EX7300v2 loses settings
My NETGEAR EXT7300v2 loses the settings whenever I need to power off the device or restart it.
- NETGEAR EX7300v2
- Firmware Version: V1.0.0.146
During a power outage or when I need to reboot it for whatever reason, it seems to lose the configuration (becoming NETGEAR_EXT) and I need to reconfigure it or at least get a dummy configuration on it so that I can reload the backup configuration file from my computer onto it.
According to my extender's menu when I access it on my browser, it has the latest firmware.
I noticed there some people are having a similar issue reported for the EX7700 (and I inadvertently posted there)

Hi @lmcjipo,
Thank you for reaching out. Please try to downgrade the firmware of the extender and see if the changes made will revert to default after you reboot the extender.
