WN300rp cascaded?

I have 2 wn3000RP and I'm trying to configure a dgnd3700 v2. The first repeats the router's signal and the second signal repeater. I tried several times with dhcp configuration with static IP but from the second repeater can not go on the Internet and the network slows down when they are connected to the second

Help me

  • You will expect to see reducing performance when adding extender/repeating is normal.
  • but how do I make it work? I can not in any way. I've tried using dhcp with static ip but on the second repeater when you connect a client does not receive IP address and blocks all network

    Hey, I got a similar issue. I have a Router Cisco and two wn3000RP. I took one and configuretd to work sending the same ssid and it works fine. But when i connect and configure the second wn3000RP as a cascade from the first one, trying to connect any computer it doesnt get ip adress and doesnt transmit internet access. I tried a lot of diferents ways of connection and nothing did work. I think tha this devices does not support cascade configuration.
  • jmizoguchi, you aren´t colaborating. In fact, you don´t have idea about what the problem is here. The problem is the repeater, it have a bug and we will have to wait till Netgear realase a fix with the next firmware for the product.
