WNDR3400v2 "AP mode" switch missing after firmware update to 1.0.0.52
AP mode switch used to be under Advanced- Advanced Setup- Wirless Settings. It is no longer there. The articles I have found while searching the Netgear site say it will auto detect that it is behind...
Use LAN to LAN instead of LAN to WAN.
Welcome to the community, JWHIII
Latest firmware does not support Wireless Repeating functionality.
NETGEAR has removed the repeating functionality due to security vulnerability since it will only allow you to use WEP.
The only way to get it back is to use the previous firmware that supports it.
Access Point mode has nothing to do with wireless repeating, and the latest firmware added wireless repeating functionality that wasn't there before. Since firmware update, the WNDR3400 insists on being a router and having seperate WAN and LAN subnets even though it is behind another router and firewall. This makes it worthless to me since the update and I will be replacing the firmware with older version from netgear or DD-WRT.
I apologize about that.
You may want to just disable the DHCP server of the router and assign a static IP under Advanced > LAN Setup
This is the same as AP mode.
