Port Forwarding with EX6420

Question

Hi all,&nbsp;I have a trouble using my new Extender Netgear EX6420.&nbsp;I need to open, on my router, a few ports on a few ip addresses.I noticed that the extender assigns the same (virtual) mac address to all the devices connected to the network cable.Consequently, the router is not able to assign a specific port to each IP address since for him the available mac address is only one.How can I do to resolve?&nbsp;Thanks,Marcello&nbsp;

Hi Christian,&nbsp;yesterday&nbsp;I contacted local Netgear support (Italy) and they recorded the serial. They also opened the ticket to me concerning the problem of port-forwarding.Thanks&nbsp;

Hi Christian,&nbsp;Thank you for your suggestion. I knew about 90 days but I also have a problem with product registration. entering the serial I get this error: "the country of purchase is not valid". I don't know how to register the extender for assistance
