When you set them up, did you do it using the installation assistant or using wps?
Did you set the EX8000 thats acting as an extender to connect to the EX8000 acting as an AP or to the orange box?
Are you trying to set all 3 devices with the same ssid?
Also, have you tried going into the orange box and setting the AP and extender with a static ip address?

Thanks Plemans for ur prompt answer.
I don't use the WiFi of the LifeBox, so the both EX8000 using the same SSID (one wifi activated on the repeater)
Both installation through the assistant.
Same issue when using static IP for both EX8000.
Any idea ?
