Set up the Wi-Fi, first. Use the same channel, SSID and password as configured on the Beetel. Again, you must use WEP or no security on both the WNR614 and the Beetel. Click Apply to save the Wi-Fi settings. Second, follow the instructions under the section titled Set Up a Repeater starting on page 44 of the manual. How-tos TroySmith. This person is a verified professional. These instructions explain how to set up a NETGEAR wireless router as an access point on a network with another router (the main router). Connect the router that you just set up as an access point to one of the available Ethernet router in the network (the.

Hello, I've been trying to set up a wireless repeater for my house for the past day and I am stumped as to why it is not working. I have two netgear routers, one is a wndr3300 and the other is a wndr4000. Here's what I tried so far.

• I set up the SSID, channels, and security for the base station router(wndr4000).(It would only let me use WEP encryption for Wireless repeating for some reason)

• Basic english grammar books free download pdf. I then enabled the wireless repeating function on the base station router, and put in the 1st MAC address of the repeater router(wndr3300. It had two MAC addresses, one for each band I assume, but I used the first one)

• After that I went into the menu of the repeater router(wndr3300) and changed the SSID and such to match that of the base station router.

• Finally I enable the wireless repeating function on the wndr3300 and put in the MAC address of the base station router and set it to use the ip address of 192.168.1.15

However after completing all of these steps it doesn't seem to work. As soon as I enable the repeating function on the wndr3300 it will no longer let me connect to the router. I have no internet access or access to the config menu of the router from wireless or wired connection. When running ipconfig in command prompt when hard lined, the default gateway is blank and the ipv4 address is some windows default one.

I know daniweb is full of helpful experts, so any and all help is appreciated. If you guys could help me get this up and running that would be great and if you could help me use WPA instead of WEP if possible that would be great as well. Thanks in advance for any help. :)

It (the repeater) is likely using the same address as the other router, so reset it to factory specs, and then change the base (gateway) address of it so it doesn't conflict with the other router.

A wireless repeater, as the name indicates, repeats or extends the wireless signal produced from a router. Businesses use a repeater to expand the broadcast range of their networks, improving signal strength and enabling devices outside the range of the router to connect to the network. Not all Netgear routers support wireless distribution system, which is a critical part of setting up the router as a repeater. Review the documentation included with your router to ensure you can set it up using this procedure.

Connect an Ethernet cable to the Netgear router hosting the network. Connect the other end to a computer.

Input 'www.routerlogin.net' or '192.168.1.1' -- without quotes -- into the address bar of a Web browser. Press 'Enter.'

Enter your administrative credentials into the User Name and Password fields. Click 'OK' to log in.

Select 'Wireless Settings' from under Setup. Write down the network name, mode and channel.

Choose 'WEP' from under Security Options. Enter a security key into the appropriate fields and then click 'Apply.'

Select 'Wireless Repeating Function' from under Advanced. Write down the MAC address of the device.

Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the router and connect it to the Netgear device to be used as a repeater. Confirm the router is not connected to the modem.

Log on to the router using the same instructions as in Steps 2 and 3. Configure the router so that its service set identifier, mode, channel and security settings match that of the network.

Click 'Router Status' and write down the IP address, found under LAN Port.

Click 'Wireless Repeating Function.' Write down the MAC address shown and then select 'Enable Wireless Repeating Function.' Choose 'Wireless Repeater' from the options.

Enter the IP address of the router, recorded in Step 9, into the applicable field and then deselect 'Disable Wireless Client Association.'

Enter the MAC address of the network router into the Base Station MAC Address field. Click 'Apply' to turn the router into a repeater.

Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the repeater. Sign on to the network and then access router setup.

Go to the Wireless Repeating Function page and then select 'Enable Wireless Repeater.' Click 'Wireless Base Station.'

Deselect 'Disable Wireless Client Association' and then enter the MAC address of the repeater into the applicable field.

Tips

• Enter 'admin' into the User Name field and 'password' into the Password field if you've never changed the login details.
• For best results, use the repeater with another Netgear router. The steps to configure the repeater to work with another brand of router will vary depending on the make and model of the device.
