Almond+ as extender/repeater?

[mothmanex]

Is it possible to run the Almond+ as a extender/repeater? I want to use it as a extender mostly to be able to use better Z-wave and Zigbee, but I saw that the Almond+ doesn't work without an internet connection (it freezes on the boot screen). Is there a way to configure it as a extender or repeater without an active internet connection?

Was able to get it on repeater mode, currently on R066 (stable) release. Now the problem I have is that when I enable the extend/repeater mode, the new network doesn't have an internet connection. I tried doing it with both a 2.4Ghz network (AES) and a 5Ghz network (AES) and still end with no connection.

Need to do this to move the Almond closer to my Schlage FE599NX and be able to add the sensor.
