Weird behavior
Hello from the other side!
Issue : Range extender wifi suddenly does not let me connect to it oftentimes. If I am connected I have noticed a slow down in speed AND the worst part, while browsing the app, many sites don't open. I get a server not found error message (in any browser I use). If I disconnect from the range extender wifi and connect directly via wifi to the router I can access certain sites.
Example : I google for mazda (car brand) and on the top of googles searchengine I see a AD mazda site. I can't open it with the range extender wifi but with the regular router wifi.
Now oftentimes even though the booster signal is strong, it does not let me connect to it. I unplugged the router and range extender, reinstalled the range extender (via reset and netgear genie), replaced the netgear EX6200 with a newer model EX7000 and I have the exact same issue.
Any idea?

Hello hellofromhere12,
Please factory reset the router and extender. After resetting, run through the extender setup and let us know if your issue persists.
