Does an WNDR3400 work as an wi-fi repeater if the security of the main router is set to WPA2-PSK (AES)? I have an WNDR3400|N600 router which I want to use as a Wi-Fi repeater. Can I do it for th...

The question is, what security is this (WEP or None), is it between me and the WNDR3400v1, is it between the WNDR3400v1 and the main router, or simply the security for both connections has to be set to WEP or None
The entire wifi network needs to be either WEP or none. WEP was cracked long ago, so it is not secure.
The main router and the WNDR3400v1 are in two different buildings. I am not sure I can use Power Line Communication.
Here's a company that may have your answer they http://www.ccrane.com/Xtreme-15-WiFi-Repeater-System
here is a system that offers a possible way of connecting two remote locations with wifi from one building to another building directional antennas forming a wifi repeater using external antennas mounted outside or intertnal antennas inside thought this fits the needs of the poster. They can still use their main router they have. it should work like a cell tower relaying the signal from one place to another place if a clear line of sight for the antennas.
I know it is outside the box idea but is a real world answer for his problem.
I'am sorry that I may seem like some of my question do not may sense But I like to be able see in my mind the picture of the issue and be able to break it down in to parts. It is easier to remove the parts of the problem then you can divide the problem into half's. The reason I even posted the information the remote link the wifi signals they want in building from a different building makes there are two separate buildings and no way to run a cat 5 or 6 cable or use powered lan is out because of different power feeds.

I think Michael is just asking you to use quotes (or some form of punctuation) around the text you copy/paste. That would make it easier to follow some of your responses.
