Alright, so the base router is a Netgear WNDR4500v3 and I have a Netgear WNR1000v4 router that I want to run as a wifi extender. I read the manual for the 1000 but when I went to configure it, I was unsuccesful so that's why I'm here :)
Please help, thanks!

Both routers have to support WDS [wireless distribution system]. One has to be the base and the other the repeater.

Good catch though on the 1000 documentation.

Sorry but your last resort is to see if there is a firmware update for either the 4500 that supports wds or bridge/extension or the 1000 that supports bridge/extension
