AC750 Model EX3700 and Synology Rt1900ac

Hi,

 

I can't get my new EX3700 AC750 extender to work with  Synology RT1900AC.  I can complete the setup but when I try a device to connect to it, it can only go as far as 'Obtaining IP Address'.  If look at my router device list I can see the extender Mac address but no IP address assigned.  Is this normal? Anything that I need to do in my router or with the Netgear extender?

 

Thank you.

    Are you setting it up with the wps setup option or using the smart installation wizard?

    Try the smart installation wizard. 

    Firmware on your extender?

        Have you tried hardwiring it in and seeing if it works in AP mode? Just want to make sure it works right.
