router to extender/AP to another extender

I am trying to extend my network from my base router to my WN2000RPTv3 where I will have a non-wireless computer plugged in. However the range is too long, so I need either a fully wireless range extender or an access point on a long cat5 cable in the middle. However I have tried both and neither will work. It won't get internet to the final extender.  I'm assuming there is some setting I must change somewhere to allow the range extender to work right in the middle? Is this even possible? It seems to get funky with IP address or something. 

So the full layout is Router (R6100) wired to access point (WN802T) then wireless to Range extender (WN2000rptv3) wired to computer. OR replace the WN802T with a wireless extender. 

Thanks

Model: WN2000RPTv3|WiFi Range Extender

Hi @broken08,

                        Do you gain internet access if you connect any devices to WN802T? WN3000RPv3 is configured as AP or extender with your WN802T?
