EX7000 - NEED TO REBOOT EVERY DAY
I have the "NETGEAR Nighthawk AC1900 Desktop WiFi Range Extender (EX7000-100NAS)" implemented in my house wireless network. This device works fantastic but it lost connection every single day. I work...

I have the same problem. Lasts for about a week then locks up. Why is there no log? Is there a secret webnpage with the system log or a secret SSH login to view the log?
- Hardware Version EX7000
- Firmware Version V1.0.1.78_1.0.140
Strangely, I have two devices on the same network which both lock up at the same time. Also, I recommended the same device to my parents and theirs also does exactly the same thing since the firmware upgrade. :manmad:
Will try a factory resent then reconfigure from scratch then if that doesn't work will try to roll back firmware.

Roll back to the previous 1.0.0.66, to a factory reset, and reconfigure it from scratch.

Same issue here, couple of times a week it needs a manual reboot as it stops providing internet access but is still a visible WiFi connection. Using as an additonal wired access point for my R7000. Bought to replace a pair of NETGEAR EX6120 as they also had issues where they stopped working and needed a reboot. Think I am going to have to try a different supplier and return this if not sorted soon.
