Validating Identity using WN3000RP

1)Since installing a WN3000RP between my PC and N150 ADSL2/Router using the 2nd option the network connection status on the PC is continually shown as 'Validating Identity'. The new connection is working fine.
Returning the PC connection direct to the N150 the status just shows 'connected' (but very slow due to packet loss, which is why I inserted the extender in the first place)
N150 is running 1.1.00.35_WW
WN3000Rp is on v1.0.1.34_1.1.46
PC is on XPsp3.
(a notebook with Windows 7 starter doesn't show the 'Validating Identity' status)

2)When logging into WN3000RP using Firefox on my XP PC the logon screen opens up in a sidebar, not in the main window - doesn't do this in IE8 and the N150 doesn't do this in Firefox either)

Thanks for any suggestions.
