NETGEAR is aware of this and will fix it in the later firmware.
I had the same problem where my wireless clients could not access Internet through WN1000RP.
The initial setup was successful - the extender was able to connect to my router under WPA(TKIP) and WPA2(AES) mixed security mode. My wireless clients were able to connect to the WN1000RP. They just could not go to Internet. Three LEDs on WN1000RP were on in green.
I tried to login to the WN1000RP's GUI at www.mywifiext.net, from the Status page I found the same invalid Gateway & DNS addresses as described in the first post:
Ip 192.168.1.250
Subnet 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 0.0.0.0
Dns: 0.0.0.0
I contacted NETGEAR Support and they said this is an known issue. They provided me a beta firmware that addressed my issue. I guess there should be a new official WN1000RP firmware coming soon.
