Pulling my hair out on this one - have gone through it dozens of times, following the instructions in the manual to no avail...

I have two Netgear R6200s:

Grace is my primary wireless access point and is directly connected to my internet modem. I want it as the base station for a wireless repeater configuration.

o LAN IP address is 192.168.1.1
o DHCP pool is 192.168.1.3 to .254

Green is the 2nd R6200, and I want it configured in a wireless repeater mode, to extend the range of my wireless coverage in the back of the house.

o IP address for wireless repeater function - "same IP subnet as base station, but different IP" - 192.168.1.2

Does someone have more specific configuration details, beyond what's in the manual, to make this work?
