How do I use the Nighthawk App to setup n control my wifi extender if the app is unable to connect to it nor will it let me select the extender SSID?

Only the Netgear EX7700 is currently supported by the Nighthawk App, so let's assume that's the extender you are talking of.

Follow the instructions in the Nighthawk X6 AC2200 Tri-Band WiFi Mesh Extender Model EX7700 Quick Start Guide:

1. Download the Nighthawk app on your mobile device.

2. On your mobile device, open the WiFi connection manager, then locate and connect to the extender network called NETGEAR_EXT.

3. Launch the Nighthawk app.
4. Follow the prompts to connect your extender to your router WiFi network.
5. After the setup is complete, move your extender to a new location.
6. Connect your WiFi-enabled devices to the extended network.
