I have basically the same issue and I am unable to detect what happens.
I use my WN2000RPT to connect a couple of wired devices to a WNDR4000.
Setup of the WN2000RPT went smoothly and I was able to connect the wired devices (a TV and a Blu-ray) to the internet thru' the 4000.
After some time the WN2000RPT and the devices connected to it disappear from my network. I haven't found any way to detect it in the logs on the 4000.
And since the 2000 requires power cycling to reconnect, even if it did contain a log, that would be wiped anyway.
The 2000 connects to the 4000 without having to set up any Wireless Repeating Function on the 4000 (which btw only support WEP and not WPA2).
2000 running V1.0.1.20.
4000 running V1.0.0.66_8.0.55
Ideas anyone, except for a bug in the 2000?
