192.x.x is not internet routable IP so that is LAN subnet for private.


I am so confused of which IP to use. This is how my system is
Rogers(provider) -> Cable -> Roger's Router (ie. gateway) -> LAN -> WNDR3700 -> Wireless -> Extender -> Wireless -> PC

This is the detail of all the IP I could find.
----------------------
From Roger's Router:
INTERNET
WAN IP: 99.237.40.106
WAN Subnet Mask: 255.255.254.0
WAN Gateway IP: 99.237.40.1

GATEWAY
DHCP Gateway IP Address: 192.168.0.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
DNS Proxy IP Address: 192.168.0.1
-----------------------
WNDR3700:
Internet Port
IP Address 192.168.0.10
Connection DHCP
IP Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
Domain Name Server 192.168.0.1

LAN Port
IP Address 10.0.0.1

How should I set the IP of the extender so that it works?

Thanks

Yay!!! I got it to work!!! Thank you so much!!!
I didn't know about the Double NAT issue at all.

I managed to change Rogers' router to a normal gateway (no LAN function)
and now the extender works perfect!!!!

Thank you soo much
