RAX120 and Mesh x65 extendar

[mv8167]

Will the x6S mesh extender work with my new RAX120 router?

[plemans]

should work fine. 

I recently fired my EX8000 back up and connected it to my RAX200 for testing and it works great.

It seems that when I confjigure my extendar, about 50% of my devices stop being connected. They just loose there current WIFI connection. Especiallyn my Alexa devices. Anyone have this issue too? Can Netgear tell me if these two devices have been tested together?

[plemans]

Again, i don't have the RAX120 but I've ran my RAX200 and EX8000 for a while. No issues with alexa devices or google home devices.

What firmware is on each one of them? 

and what modem are you using?

[mv8167]

Both have the latest firmware and my modem is from ATT UVERSE. I have reset both soft/hard and hjave tried a few old firmware versions. I am having issues with my new roouter dropping the WUIFI signal or not sending one out at all.

Att is known for using combo devices. That means they have a router and a modem integrated together. And att is also known for their passthrough/modem only modes not functioning correctly. 

do you have your RAX setup in AP mode? 

[mv8167]

Not sure what AP (Access Point) mode is but I use my router is set up as just a WIFI router for home use. When I add in the extender, starting from ground zero, my WIFI signals become very unstable. The Amazon products seem to get disconnected while other devices disconnect randomly. Using the RASX120 seems to disconnect and drop signals randomly also, so it could be the overall culprit.

you could be a double nat that can cause instabilities.
