It worked fine, but discovered seting as repeter is no security.
So, I reset the R7000 base unit, all went well, the R7000 repeter unit is now stock.
I am not able to reset becouse the repeater unit keeps trying to reboot every few minutes, the unit never boots up in order to reset.
Even in this condition I tryed pressing the reset button, first 7 seconds, then 30 seconds then 30/30/30 30 reset 30 reset with power off then 30 seconds reset with power on

If you have the IP address of the 7000 series router running in repeater mode, you can log in to the routers web pag using this IP address and configure the Repeater mode back to Router or AP mode. Otherwise, press the reset button in back for 10 seconds and this will put the router back in to router mode.
the problem is can not get the router to boot up.
I tried to reset with different ways, 7 seconds then 30 seconds, then 30/30/30, then 60 seconds.... none are working. Because in order to reset, router has to be booted up and running. this router is in the loop now.

That is a very different issue.
What happens when you power up the router? What do the LEDs on the front look like? Especially the power LED.
