HP CM1415fnw goes APIPA on a Thomson TG789 GW through a Netgear WN3000RP

Hi!

A HP CLJ Pro CM1415fnw (MFC) on Netgear Wifi goes all APIPA on me (169.254.x.x), connecting to a common Thomson TG789 gateway (192.168.1.1) through a Netgear WN3000RP range extender (192.168.1.72.)

In the Gateway Network Map I can see two IP-assignments from the gateway to the HP MFC-unit's WLAN-ports, based on known MAC-adresses, but I cannot connect or set-up the IP's as Network Printers on the gateway-side of the range extender. On the other side of the range extender -- the MFC-unit side -- I have full access to the HP MFC-unit.

Question: Does Netgear follow IEEE-standards to communicate by Wifi and if so, why doesn't the HP MFC 2011-unit communicate with common gateway through Netgear Wifi 2011/2012-equipment?

I might add: Gateway-signal is poor at MFC-unit and good at extender, otherwise all signals are excellent. WPA/WPA2-PSK, using TKIP.
