Extender EX7000 continues to lose connection
Hi, I use EX7000 with R7000. The extender's 5GHz network loses its connection after a few hours. Within the EX admin page,it displays "No connection"!! In order to get it to work again, I need to reset and setup again! This happens a every few days. Is the extender faulty / garbage?

What firmware is on it?
Are there any objects in the way?
Have you tried moving it closer/further away?
What modem is the R7000 connected to?
What firmware is on the R7000? its been known to have issues with firmware. I'd recommend making sure the R7000 is on the .42 firmware, factory reset, and manually reinstall before I'd look at the EX7000 to hard.

But is the R7000 been known to be buggy? yes. If you install the .42 version and it runs great, then you know it was a firmware issue. If it doesn't, then it wasn't the firmware and you could go back to the most recent.
