WN2000RPT v2 wireless device doesn't connect
Hi,
I've successfully followed directions to install Extender from booklet Installation Guide 'till 3rd step of 3rd point of Option 2: Connecting with web browser setup guide; at this point I've can't connect a wireless device to the new Extender network.
The device used to do this is a tablet Arcos 80 and at screen asking for marking a checkbox to confirm my wireless devices are connected to the new network, I got lost.
The Link Rate LED never turned on.
What do I doing wrong?
Thanks a lot.

- Hello fellow frustrated WN2000RPT owner, I have just bought one and spent 8 hours over the weekend fiddling with it, a bit like you have done really, did you ever reach the point where you successfully reached "complete" on the installation programme?
I either got "timed out" or reached the very last checkbox only to find it "greyed out" or not accepting a "click"
The extender at that point was actually working as far as I could tell, only loading a webpage just resulted in a refresh of the mywifi rubbish - and so on and on it went for hours.
Life has to be more interesting than this surely?? - someone ? - anyone ??
Its final journey is back to Amazon..............to join its friends no doubt.
