WN3000RP install challenges

Trying to install extended to c3000 Netgear router. Can’t get it to work. I can connect client to extender no problem. I can connect extender to router no problem. Just can’t do both at the same time. Support has been on the phone with me for 2 hours with no luck. What could be wrong ?

    Are you wanting to set it up in AP mode or extender mode?

     

    Have you tried setting it up without using WPS?

        Does it work over ethernet after you complete the setup?  Or does that fail also?

         

        Is this a new purchase?
