    I have rescued from the vault an Edimax WiFi Extender. It will be

    It appears to have the same IP address for: 1. The wired
    connection, to the remote device; 2. the 2.4GHz wireless
    connection; 3. the 5GHz wireless connection.

    This does not sound correct. Surely it should have different
    addresses for each of these different paths?
    I think a Reset and reconfigure is in order, with three different addresses.
    Have I got this right?

    RE200. I have downloaded the manual, and at a quick glance, this is not
    a big deal. But I will read it in more detail later.
    As I say, it works, and if that is a not-uncommon arrangement, I will
    let it be.
