Ax5700 + CM2000
Looking for some help.
I have a 1,200 sqft apartment. My router and modem are in the front of the house because that's where Spectrum set it up. My office is probably right at the end of the range because I get a connection but it will sometimes drop if I'm running WebEx and other reporting apps simultaneously. Is EX7700 compatible with my current set up and would this fix my problem? I also have a switch and can run a second router to my office so its closer.
Open to other extender/router options I just don't want to rerun cabling through the house if I don't have to.

AC5700 is a speed, not a model. Is it the RAX75?
the EX7700 would work with it.
Will it fix your problems? Unknown. if your home is made of materials that do a great job of blocking wifi, then its a maybe.
But the RAX75 should easily cover your whole home if you can centrally locate it.
any chance that you can move the modem/rotuer to a central location? If you've got coax ran through the house, it might be as simple as just moving it. Or you might need to trace a coax line or 2 to ensure your running the spectrum signal to the appropriate jack.
