WN2000RPT is slower than WNR3500L
WN2000RPT is connected via wifi to WNR3500L. WNR3500L is upstairs, and WN2000RPT is downstairs, using WPA-PSK. I'm downstairs with my laptop and connect to WNR3500L via wifi and run speedtest.net...
When you use wireless extending, or to call it by it's correct name, wireless repeating, there will always be a drop in throughput, expect no more than 50% throughput per repeater. so if you have a single repeater, you'll see at best 50% of your available throughput, with two repeaters that will drop to 25%, and so on.
Wireless repeating should be used only as a last resort.
