Hi ,

Even if you have configured repeater on 5GHz, you still will be able to connect clients to it .

If you have configured Repeater WAN in bridge mode , you will get IP from Base AP . Better to disable DHCP on Repeater .

If you have Repeater WAN in NAT mode , you will need to keep running DHCP on repeater , but change default IP pool on Repeater from 192.168.11.0/24 to something else .

Below are few article to help you with configuration .

This one coveres both bridge mode and NAT mode . Just Ignore E-series configuration .
