WN2500RP - Pot forwarding?

I've been using a WNDR3700 with a few cameras. I use port forwarding to get to each camera remotely.

I just added a WN2500RP extender.

Can I connect cameras to extender? and do I need to re-establish port forwarding?

I'm a bit confused conceptually.

Thanks

whatever the IP that camera needs to be reached is not different than before.

use the IP that you can view on LAN to the camera and forwarded

Thanks. So I would connect cameras to new SSID of the extender, and everything else stays the same I believe. The camera IP addresses are fixed and stay the same, the router still forwards the respective port to each cameras IP address now through the extender.

Think I got that right. Maybe I'm over thinking this.

Re: WN2500RP - Pot forwarding?

I am trying to port froward from my netgear WNDR3400v2 to WN2500RPv2 then to my computer at 192.168.1.10. I cannot find a way to forward from the WN2500RPv2 to my computer. I can only port forward with the WNDR3400v2 to the computer. But that is not working. Can either of you help? I see this is an old thread but nothing else is online to help.
