Using old router as wifi extender?
does anyone know if i can use my wndr3400v3 router as a wifi extender to extend the signal from my non-netgear router? if so, can you provide instructions on how to set up?

I don't see that the wndr3400 supports repeater/extender function.
If you wanted to use it, you could hardwire it in via ethernet, moca adapters, or powerline and use it in access point mode.

Hi richscheer,
Good day!
Welcome to NETGEAR Community!
Thank you for reaching out. The WNDR3400v3 router doesn't support a wireless repeating function.
Please do not hesitate to let me know if you need further assistance.
