WNDR3400v2 as repeater with base station no WEP

My situation is this.

I have a Century Link modem Technicolor C2100T as my base station.

I have my Netgear WNDR3400v2 connected via ethernet and setup to be a repeater.

 

My question is, in the documentation, it looks to me like both Routers have to use WEP or NONE.

The problem is that WEP is not an option on the C2100T, only WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES].

 

So does this mean I cannot use the WNDR3400v2 as a repeater?

Or am I missing something.

 

Thank you.

Turns out I think I was going after the wrong thing.

What I really wanted was WAP
