Greetings,

I am trying to setup two repeaters.. Well long term I have one duel band R7000 repeater I want to repeat both 2.4 and 5g. But for the moment lets discuss the issue at hand. I have read many sets of directions. I have setup the routers in "wireless ethernet bridge" mode. I made the main router a gateway and the other two routers. The repeaters do attach to the base/main router. I can talk to them from my network. If I plug into them they can get on the internet. But they are not brodcasting the SSID and they are not increasing my range at all. Can someone perhaps tell me what I am doing wrong?

I would not mind using them in Access Point + WDS mode.. But the SSID's I am attaching to are virtual guest networks and they only support "Access Point" mode.

Thank you in advance…

I really appreciate everyone pitching in to help me with this. After a lot of effort and testing I finally figured out that you have to add an access point. That seems to have been left out of all the howto's. You add the bridge then an access point for the inbound connection.
