Hello Netgear Community! I recently purchared the netgear ac2200 triband nighthawk because I moved and the wifi did not reach my new office location. I have been able to successfully connect and I have eliminated all wifi issues I was having with my laptop. My iphone is a different story. My phone will not stay connected to wifi. It toggles back and forth between data and wifi allll day long. I've tried forgetting the network from my phone and I did some iphone troubleshooting but I'm still having issues. Does anyone have any recommendations? I'm just curious because my computer seems fine now with the extender but my phone does not. Kind of frustrating!
Then logon to your router (mywifiext.local on Windows) and you will see that Firmware Update is an option and you can use Upload Update File (it warns you that it is older than the current version). This .206 firmware has been working fine for more than a week (and it worked for months before the extender updated itself to .the .210 firmware). Also, switch off automatic updating of firmware.
Is this the EX7700? If so then quite a few people are having problems with the latest firmware (.210). I have had no problems since going back to the .206 firmware.

@DavidRC THANK YOU!!!!! Its working perfectly now. Took me a little bit to figure it out. I was trying to upload the firmware to the router, not the extender. Once I figured that out it was smooth sailing. Thank you again for you help!
