It is usually a lot easier to set up and configure a device with a wired connection to the router and the browser graphical user interface (GUI)
Just trying to configure as an access point to plug into existing router and extend service. WHY IS THIS SO HARD???

How do I change my NETGEAR router to AP mode? | Answer | NETGEAR Support
You don't say which Netgear router you are using. Manuals are always a good place to start.
Visit the support pages:

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.
Look for the model number on the label on the device.
Check the manual for something like Use the Router as a Wireless Access Point. The wording may differ depending on the model number.
