My RAX80 router works perfectly fine and anything connected to it works, the EAX80 extender is the issue.
I have tried all the tricks in the book from manually updating the firmware, factory reset, setup as new, try multiple locations, try multiple different setups, fastlane/basic, one name, change channels, etc. and nothing fixed the problems.

If I can't get a Netgear EAX80 to work properly with a Netgear RAX80, Netgear you have serious quality control issues. I have given up and am going to return this paper weight.
