Dodrury, can you list the exact model of your Netgear Wifi devices.
- Did you check the firmware version on your Netgear extenders? You might have to update the firmware (It did fix couple of issues that I had with my Cisco/Linksys N-300 AP that I am using as an extender).
- Do you see your AP listed on your Netgear extenders (when you search for the wireless AP's)? If yes, what is the signal strength? Are you using a particular channel for the connection between your AP and WiFi extenders (make sure that the channel is not interfering with another device)?
Also, make sure that you are using the same security settings (WPA, WPA2) on your extender when you try to connect to either Linksys or RAP-3 with your Netgear devices. (I hope that you are not using WEP).
