Which MAC address?

Question

I have a basic question. I have a WNDR3700 Base Station connected by Ethernet to 3 WNR3500s, acting as repeaters to boost the signal around my house. When I set up the wireless repeating section, presumably I should be using the LAN MAc addresses for all 4, and not the wireless MAC addresses?

Thanks for any input.

Wireless repeating can not be done using the ethernet port - if it's wireless, it's wireless - get the idea?If you want to use the ethernet port, you have to set them up to run as access points.
