Unable to login to EX6200v2 settings
So the problem I have is, I changed my Netgear EX6200v2 to a static IP address and now I’m unable to login to it thru my Internet browser. The Wi-Fi extender still works, where I’m able to connect to it with my devices. But I’m unable to login to it. I’ve tried resetting it and a lot of other troubleshooting.

And what address did you setup in the router to assign to the extender? If the extender is expecting to be on one address and the routers assigning a different one, it can cause issues.

There might be ways of achieving your objective without breaking the way they design these systems.
How are you trying to login to the extender? What happens when you aim a browser at their IP address?
You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.
In the meantime you could visit the support pages:
Support | NETGEAR
Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.
You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.
I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
