Cell phones can't connect to internet after Nighthawk setup
2 cell phones in our house cannot connect to the internet after setting up Nighthawk. One phone is a Google Pixel and the other is a Samsung Galaxy.

You put its an extender? what actual model?
What method of setup did you use? WPS? The installation assistant?

Thank you for everyone's input. I was able to speak directly with Netgear and they helped fix the problem through a remote session. They gave me a number for the Pro Support Team in the future.
