Thanks plemans! It took me a while to reset it, and beforehand my laptop was starting to constantly be booted off the 5G network. I'd switch to it seemingly successfully, and then it'd switch to the 2.4g network some minutes later.

Well, looks like I spoke too soon. It worked fine last night after resetting it, but now it's not working at all. The lights are still on on the unit, but I can't connect to my IP address or to mywifiext and the Netgear extender login page says I'm not connected to the extender. I've tried their troubleshooting tips to no avail.
Are you on version 1.0.0.210 of the firmware?
If so, downgrade tot he 1.0.0.206 version, factory reset, and reinstall. After reinstall, disable auto-updates. I've seen a coupe posts where people are having issues on the latest firmware.
