Router and 2 Extender
Hello, I purchased 2 of the Netgear WN3000RP
and I have set the network as follows:
1. MODEM / ROUTER WIRELESS-lynksis x3500 (cisco) Wi-fi Home
2. Extender Ranked # 1 WN3000RP Wi-fi home_Ext
3. Extender WN3000RP Ranked # 2 (attached to the extender WI_FI 1) Wi-Fi home_Ext_EXT
Now my problem is this, I set all the DNS as dynamic, the first network extender work well no problem with internet connection (even the ping is great, slowed 2ms) , the second goal it fails to navigate to the internet, windows says limited connection, and it does not work the internet.
Operating system: Windows 8.1 ADSL Alice.
Can you help? I have to set fixed ip on the second extender?
