The modes I have in advanced setup are advanced wireless settings, wireless access point, port forwarding/port triggering, dynamic DNS, VPN service, static routes, web services management, USB settings, UPnP, IPv6, traffic meter, LED control settings, and VLAN/bridge settings. This is all I have except for the buttons I want. Is there any way I can get these modes
What is the specific model number of your router? Look on the label.
The wireless repeater function is not a feature on all models.

A quick review indicated the wireless repeater function is not a feature of your model. There is no way to "add" a feature to a router.
