EAX80 NIGHTHAWK® X8 8-STREAM WIFI 6 MESH EXTENDER
Please update EAX80 firmware with WPA3 support. It doesn't make sense to buy an RAX200 with WPA3 support, which could only then be undermined by attacks on WPA2 through the EAX80 WiFi 6 mesh extender. It compromises network security, leads to a poorly executed product lineup, and prevents sales from technically knowledgeable consumers.
Not sure if firmware is able to support this, but should update it if possible to advertise better security protocols for your home networks which would lead to increase sales (not taking into account your already increased sales from the pandemic). Y'all could actually make this a selling point considering the current circumstances for working from home.

My RAX80 is running WPA3 and my EAX80 WPA2 due to Netgear being behind on firmware updates. When will the EAX80 get WPA3 added?
