Hi everyone, this is my first post to this newsgroup so please excuse my
lack of finesse. I am having trouble setting up a Netgear WG602 v3 acess
point as a repeater. I am using a Linksys WAG54 as my internet gateway
and primary access point but it doesn't seem to have a bridging option
built in. The only client system I am running is my notebook with built
in Intel 2100 adapter. The notebook can associate with the AP without a
problem, but when I switch the Netgear WG602 on I loose the siganl to
the Linksys AP. I have the WG602 set in repeater mode and have set the
frequency to chan 11 (same as the linksys AP) and to chan 5 (at least 3
channels difference) but get the same result. I am guessing that since
the Netgear WG602 is acting as a repeater, IP settings and Security
settings (WPA/WEP) should not matter since repeating is the physical
layer's job. My main reson for using a repeater is to extend the range
of the network.
thx for any advice
