Pro 7 Extender handing out wrong gateway address

Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? Naturally EE do not.
The Pro 7 Extender is set up and happily connected to the hub, everything looks good in the hub manager and the lights are solid aqua.

The issue is that any device that connects to it cannot see the internet because instead of the 192.168.1.254 address being given to the client as the gateway it is handing out 192.168.0.1 instead. I'm baffled.

@voipon1 Plug an Ethernet connected device into the EE Smart Wireless device and then see what the DHCP hands out to the Ethernet connection properties for the Gateway IP. Others would have spotted for sure by now the connection/s not being transferred correctly on the DHCP Server.
