Two EX2700 Same Router - Firmware Upgrade - SSID - Arrrghh!
OK So it's fair to say I'm having a bit of a nightmare...
I have two EX2700 which I want to set up with the same router. Now I have set one up via WPS then set up an account via http://www.mywifiext.com - I then upgraded the firmware.
Now how do I go about setting up a second EX2700 on the same network from the same router? I set the second one up initially via WPS - but when I go to http://www.mywifiext.com it just takes me to the new set up page and I am unable to access the login page. When I do it redirects me again to the set up page again. So I take it I have to set up a separate account for the second EX2700 on the same network using a different email address?
Also when they are both set up is it the case that you can only connect to one extender at a time? If so would it be best to individually name each extender and manually connect to whichever one I am closest to? For example 'EXT-Front' for the front of the house & EXT-Back' for the back of the house?
Tearing my hair out trying to figure all of this out - and there's nothing in the manual that assists that I can see.

OK - So to top this off I tried today to log into http://www.mywifiext.net and I can now only log into one account and the other is no longer recognised - GGggggrrrrrrrr!!!
Can someone from Netgear PLEASE explain in detail how to set up two EX2700 with the same router - whether they should be named differently - how to set them BOTH up on http://www.mywifiext.net.

Yup - I tried that. I reset both extenders to factory settings then set each one up as a seperate unit with its own SSID. I discovered they are both not working - see This Link for details.
