WR3000S Router & RE3000 Repeater MAC Issues

[Dean_1955]

Hello, I have a question about the WR3000-S and the RE3000 Repeater with updated firmware.

1: When setting up the Repeater to the Router automatically by using the Router’s interface every works as expected, After devices are sync thru the Router or the Repeater all the devices Mac address are displayed correctly on the Routers device connection status page.

2: When setting up the Repeater to the router “Manually” as a Repeater everything goes as expected, and when logged into the Router and looking at the connected devices page status all device synced to the Router there Mac address is displayed correctly,

Now here is the issue I have.

ALL devices that are synced to the REPEATER, all those devices MAC address are displayed in the Routers connection status as the REPEATER’S MAC address NOT the actual devices MAC address.

On a side note, When logged into the Repeater and looking at the connected devices all the MAC address are all correct there, It appears the repeater is transferring it’s MAC address to the Router and NOT the devices MAC address.

Is there any fix or work around for this?

Thanks!
Dean
