Problem solved!
Thanx to Netgear support.
It was not so difficult when you know how to do.
Go to a computer shop and buy new equipment. In my case an ASUS RT-N56U.
I replaced my WNR3500L with the new ASUS router. Installed DD-WRT on the WNR3500L and configured it as a (in my case) Client Bridge. Replaced the WN2000RPT with my "new" bridge.
Then finaly: Problem solved.
The WN200RPT can you put in a trash can or a dark closet. (The closet if you think that Netgear will solve the problem some day.)
Ok, I will be honest.
Netgear support confirms stability problems with the WN2000RPT.
They told me: "A product that I think is more stable is wn3000rp".
Do they think I will buy a WN3000RP when they can't solve the problem with the WN2000RPT?
