Am I able to connect a Netgear AC750 Wifi Range Extender to my Google WiFi mesh system? If so I am NOT figuring it out! Thanks for any info!!

Yes it should work as long as the setup steps don't require you to change any of your Google Wifi settings.
Use Nest Wifi or Google Wifi with wireless extenders - Google Nest Help
If you've not purchased the extender yet, I'd encourage you to keep the receipt/invoice if and when you do, so that you can return it if doesn't work.

Hi Alex, I haven't been able to get it to work. 😞 I haven't worked extra hard on it, but I downloaded the nighthawk app that it had said to. The AC750 was not one of the ones listed but I was hopeful it might work. We used this with an older router system. When I got it back out I reset it to wipe out everything and tried to start over.
With the Google wifi being a mesh system it doesn't have a WPS button so I was trying to link it through the other way it had said to.
Thanks also to DavidKing for the earlier help.

Hi there,
Here are some helpful info so we can set up your Google Nest speakers to your network.
Please note: Networks that require you to connect through an authentication page (also called a "captive portal") are not supported by Google Home. This is typical of hotels, schools, dorms and businesses.
Configuring your Router Settings
Enable: Universal Plug and Play (UPnP), multicast, Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)
Disable: AP/client isolation, virtual private networks (VPNs), proxy servers, IGMP Proxy. VPNs and proxy servers should be disabled on your computer as well (if applicable).
Here's some additional information to keep in mind:
