Expanding my network
I have the c3700-100nas and i also have a wgr614v10.
The c3700 is in the bedroom with my server and main pc. Im trying to setup the wgr614 in the living room as an access point. to allow my media player to access the network.
I did the setup for repeater in the wgr but the c3700 doesnt give the same options. and the access point menu in the c3700 doesnt let you click on anything. The c3700 also doesnt allow you to go back to wep. and the wgr wont allow anything but wep while in repeater mode.
As any questions about my other info for this and ill give you the answer. I need to figure this out please!

- Retired_MemberTo use as a Access Point you need a cat 5 cable to connect the devices. If you want to use WEP you'll need to revert to 54 to select WEP. Repeater is a bad idea if you plan on using a media player.
