Set Up a Repeater Unit

Use a wired Ethernet connection to set up the repeater unit to avoid conflicts with the wireless connection to the base station.

Note: If you are using the WNDR3800 base station with a non-NETGEAR router as the repeater, you might need to change additional configuration settings. In particular, you should disable the DHCP server function on the wireless repeater AP.

To configure the router as a repeater unit:

1.Log in to the router that will be the repeater. Select Basic > Wireless Settings and verify that the wireless settings match the base unit exactly. The wireless security option has to be set to WEP or None.

2.Select Advanced > Wireless Repeating Function, and select the Enable Wireless Repeating Function check box and the Wireless Repeater radio button.
