No Range extender Operation mode option
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I tried to connect my Archer c20 to my main Router (Unitymedia Connect Box) as a Range extender but I can't find the Range Extender Option in the Menu. I try to create a Wireless connection so I don't have to run an ethernet cable through the House. I tried updating the Firmware but I think it didn't work. If there is any other option available to create a Wireless Connection id appreciate it.

The Archer C20 V4 do not have the range extender option, V5 does.
You can setup the Archer C20 as the range extender via WDS bridging function.
Below is the instruction to set it up.

Note: Go to Wireless > Wireless Settings and click Enable WDS Bridging.
May it help.

Make sure that it works in regular wireless router mode.
And try to find under advanced-wireless-wireless settings page.
Or go to system tools-system parameters page.
Still the same, please show us the screenshots of the pictures mentioned above.
May it help.

Thank you I actually had it on Access Mode so that's why I couldn't see the WDS Bridging mode. I have now a Wireless connection. Thanks for helping me i appreciate it!
