Problem setting up WNR614 as Wifi Repeater / Range Extender

Ok, disconnect the WNR614 from everything, do a factory reset, then connect a PC to the LAN port and proceed to set it up again.
If you're going to use a cable between them then you want a ( AP ) access point. Suggest you return it and by a device with AP mode.
Or follow this link
Hi searay,
I am using the cable for just to setup the netgear router. At the end I don't want to use cable.
I cannot return that item, so could yo please help me in how to setup the netgear router as a wireless range extender.
You cannot use a cable to setup! As soon as you connect them both you cause DHCP problems. Try disabling dhcp first, then connect them. I honestly don't why you even need to connect them both for setup.
Thanks searay for your help.
Actually, thats what the user guide says (to connect router to computer with wire.
I will try it do it without wire, with wifi only.
