Thanks for the reply.. It helps if you plug the network cable into a LAN port and not the WAN... So i'm in configuration now.
Trying to set the R7000 in repeater mode but I don't see the option of Advanced Setup > Router/AP/Bridge/Repeating Mode as stated here https://kb.netgear.com/24108/How-do-I-enable-the-extender-mode-feature-on-my-Nighthawk-router. This is a netgear support article.
Do you know if an R7000 supports repeater mode? If so, where do I find it? This community article says repeater mode does NOT exist..
I'm so confused..
Hard to imagine a KB article (ID: 24108) dated or updated 06/08/2020 for the R6700, R6700v2, R6900 and R7000 isn't appropriate.
There were features removed from the R7000 - but no word from this. "Starting firmware version V1.0.9.88 for the Nighthawk AC1900 (Models: R7000), following legacy features have been removed: iTunesServer, Kwilt Photosharing, Time Machine Backup, TiVo support for media sharing, DLNA, and Downloader feature (which was in beta)."

If reading carefully, this does talk of the R7000P ... which is not the same router like the R7000.

And then again, the R7300 is not an R7000.
My mistake. Yes I have the R7300.. There is no setting for repeater.. Thanks..
