Set Up a Repeater

you might need to change more configuration settings. In particular, disable the DHCP server
function on the access point that is the repeater.
To configure a NETGEAR router as a repeater:

network of the router to be the repeater.
2. Type http://www.routerlogin.net or http://www.routerlogin.com.
