Setting up XR300 as Extender

[JPMLPS]

Hello,

XR300 1.0.3.56

I'm trying to see if its possible to set up my old XR300 as a Wifi extender for my current XR500 without being wired in. I want to put the router in another area of the house that is getting a really weak signal. I've followed the steps here but when following the prompts on the Netduma interface, I only see Access Point. I've followed those directions and it seems the image wants the XR300 plugged into the XR500, which it does give a Wifi Signal from the XR300, but I'm wondering how it could extend without being wired in.

Thanks!

XR series routers only support either router or AP mode. No extender modes are supported.

Solid.

I'm a fan of the triband extenders. The dedicated backhaul keep throughput higher and reduce latency.
