AP (Access Point) mode requires an Ethernet connection to the main router.  You may be thinking of a range extender, which is different.

But it says in the settings of the router that you can wireless connect it to anothet router so that the one connecting to another router can be used as a wireless ap

Also the router doesn't have a Ethernet in port on it...

Can a range extender be used to wireless connect to my main router if so, can i use my current setup for this?

It would be unusual for the C3000 to have this capability.  Netgear usually does not provide it in their routers.

Are you talking about the C3700?  It has two Ethernet ports.

Yes you can use a range extender to wirelessly connect to your main router.  It won't, however, be as fast as a wired Access Point.

If you want to set up the C3000 as a wired Access Point, then you can use either Ethernet port.

Ok can I use it as a wireless access point

Sorry if my prior answer wasn't clear.  No, you cannot use it as a wireless access point.
