Port Forwarding through WN3500RP

I have a AT&T 2wire wireless gateway and I have dead spot in the corner of my house that makes it difficult to connect one of my foscam wireless IP cameras. I bought the WN3500rp and got the camera setup on the extender but the portfowarding is not working. On my firewall, that camera is showing a 0.0.0.0 IP address when it is connected to the extender. When the camera is connected back to the 2wire router directly and not via the extender, the port forwarding works. I can see the camera feed when I access the ip address tied to the router, but I can't figure out how to get that darn IP address externally . Thoughts on how I get the foscam to portforward through the extender?
