I appreciate the reply, but this advice doesnt answer my question.....
The Genie I am referring too is the App that helps you to configure the router etc.
Can someone tell me what the webpage (see link in my post above) is referring too in its instructions for the Step # that I am stuck at? I see NO advanced tab or button or link.
Also, I cannot hardwire it otherwise I would. WIFI signal interference is not an issue.
Configuring the Netgear Router to be a repeater is the issue I am asking about.
Sincerely,
Schoolbus

To clarify, Genie is a webbrowser interface for configuring the router.
I hope my terminology is correct.
