Smart Connect with Extender
Does a Netgear EX3700 work with Smart Connect setting on the R8000? After switching to Smart Connect, all my wireless bands list as one SSID but the (EXT) bands still show as "Available Networks"!

It tends to fall in line with those devices that support mesh. This article: https://kb.netgear.com/000044734/How-do-I-enable-or-disable-Smart-Connect-on-my-Nighthawk-Mesh-WiFi-Range-Extender
shows an "applies to" for devices on the right side. all those have smart connect.

Is there a Netgear extender model that can support Smart Connect?
Thanks again.
