> NETGEAR D6200 as repeater
Firmware version?
1.1.00.32
What, exactly, does "as repeater" mean to you?
Repeater means to me being able to extend the coverage area of my existing wifi network
> [...] after i connected it to my NBN moderm TP link [...]
You "connected" what, exactly, to what, exactly? Hint: If a device
has multiple Ethernet ports, then "connected to device" is not enough
detail. Does your "my NBN moderm TP link" have a model number?
It is connected to the ethernet port on my tp link archer vr1600v that is my moderm/router
> [...] the Netgear router setting page doesn't work [...]
"doesn't work" is not a useful problem description. It does not say
what you did. It does not say what happened when you did it. As usual,
showing actual actions with their actual results (error messages, LED
indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague descriptions or
interpretations.
Once i was able to connect the Netgear as my secondary router to extend my coverage i change the setting on the netgear setting in the LAN set up tab i turn off "Use router as DHCP Server" because i don't want this router assigning ip address only my main moderm will that which is the TP LINK and i change the last digit on ip address so it my accesspoint
> [...] it is showing me "You are not connected to your Router's WiFi
> network. [...]
Welcome to what may be the worst error message in the world. For an
explanation, try:

Briefly, the idea is that "[www.]routerlogin.net" (or ".com") should
point to your own router, but that's true only if you use your own
router for DNS name resolution. Regardless, you should be able to get
to the thing using its IP address, if you can determine (or guess) that.
Normally, that would be something like "192.168.1.1", but it could be
different. ("10.0.0.1" is a typical alternate, for example.)

If you can run an Ethernet cable from (what I assume is) your main
(modem+)router to the D6200, then you should be able to configure the
D6200 as a wireless access point. Visit http://netgear.com/support ,
put in your model number, and look for Documentation. Get the User
Manual. Look for "AP Mode".
If you do that, the D6200-as-WAP will get a new LAN IP address. A
:routerlogin" name should work if you're connected to the D6200-as-WAP,
but from a device which is connected to your main router, you'll
typically need to specify the new LAN IP address of the D6200-as-WAP.
If your main router offers something like an "Attached Devices" or
"DHCP Clients" report, then you should be able to find the D6200-as-WAP,
and its new LAN IP address, there.
