Setting Up The Base Station - NETGEAR WNDR3400 - N600 Wireless Dual Band Router User Manual

If this check box is selected, the router communicates wirelessly only with other APs whose MAC
addresses are listed in this screen. The router still communicates with wire-connected LAN
devices.
Note: The WNDR3400 router is always in dual band concurrent mode, unless you turn
off one radio. Be aware that if you enable the wireless repeater in either radio band,
the wireless base station or wireless repeater cannot be enabled in the other radio
band. However, if you enable the wireless base station in either radio band and use
the other radio band as a wireless router or wireless base station, dual band
concurrent mode is not affected.

Setting Up the Base Station

The wireless repeating function works only in hub and spoke mode. The units cannot be daisy
chained. You must know the for both units. You must know the MAC address of the remote unit.
First, set up the base station, and then set up the repeater. To set up the base station:
1. Set up both units with exactly the same (SSID, mode, channel, and security). Note that the
wireless security option must be set to None or WEP.
