It would be unusual for the C3000 to have this capability. Netgear usually does not provide it in their routers.

Are you talking about the C3700? It has two Ethernet ports.

Can a range extender be used to wireless connect to my main router if so, can i use my current setup for this?
Yes you can use a range extender to wirelessly connect to your main router. It won't, however, be as fast as a wired Access Point.
