Do you supply a wireless range extender for the R201P. My house is quite large

~~I don't believe there's an extender for the 200 series~~. If you have a large house and you need to extend one hop, you should look into the mesh features in the E400/E500.

The R200/201 can&nbsp;be configured to run as a repeater. You can have one unit working as a normal AP. On the second one, under Wireless-\>Basic-\>Wireless Connection Mode, select 'Repeater'.&nbsp;
