WN3000RP disconnects
Just picked up my wn3000rp and hooked it up to my d-link dir-855 main router. All my wireless clients can connect to the extended network without any problems but... after 10 minutes the connection...

Sorry I'm not sure I follow. The MAC filter on my router has always been disabled. So I should now enable it on my router, and add only the virtual MAC address shown on the extender? What about devices using the router, but not to the extender? Do I need to do anything to the wireless access list on the extender?

Temporarily disable MAC filter on your router
Connect all your devices to the extender.
Log into mywifiext.net and look at the attached devices
Copy all the MAC addresses listed and Paste it into your Router's MAC filter.
Also input all your devices' MAC that connect to your router (including the Extender's MAC) into the Router's MAC filter.
Enable MAC filter on your router
