I fixed my issue following this thread https://community.netgear.com/t5/WiFi-Range-Extenders-Nighthawk/IP-Configuration-failure-EX6120-Range-Extender/td-p/1114181 even though it was for a different extender it still worked. I had to only pick one band at the start of the smart wizard as picking two doesn't work alot fo the time. One the mywifiext page it now just shows in the diagram of the signals between router and extender. that theres one green signal going into the wifi extender from the router, and theres two green signal coming out.
