Model: RE200  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 3.8

A very long ethernet cable is attached to the router: the other end of the CAT5E is to be attached to an access point (RE200).   Traffic from the RE200 to the router must flow through the ethernet cable.   How can the RE200's ethernet port be configured for DHCP and the 2.4 and 5 GHz radios as Access Points?

Yes, you can configure the RE200 to act like an Access Point where it will pull the internet from the Ethernet cable and provide 2.4G and 5G wireless networks.

 

Here is an article that will show you how:

@Tony This doesn't work.  I've tried it about a dozen times tonight.  It's not getting enough info to connect.
