Yes you can. but you need to setup the EX8000 in access point mode.
Thx, for the solution. But one more question: Is my internet router in the ground flour (internet access point) still working as WLAN router, when I turn the Netgear Repeater in the first flour to an access point?
No.
The router stays in router mode.
In access point mode, the router controls dhcp.
I quite frequently run router + access point/points.
