Setting WN3500RP as a repeater?
Hey guys...I wanted to extend the range of my current N600 router to reach the back bedroom in our apartment. I tried following the directions on the Netgear website to set up the WN3500RP as a repeater with no luck. Does anyone have logical, easy to understand directions on how to do this? The extender does not have an "Advanced Setting" tab for making it a repeater. As of now, I have the WN3500RP in our bedroom and our devices flip-flop between my regular SSID (N600) and the SSIDext (WN3500RP). I need just the one network that my devices will connect to no matter what room I am in. Thanks all!

join the network with wn3500 and not repeating such setup in manual (support.netgear.com)
Use same SSID for _Ext
If you can flip both SSID right now then you probably are too close each other to use extender
