Connect WN2500RP to Linksys WRT54G

Hello,

I recently bought an extender Netgear WN2500RP which I want to work together with a wireless Linksys router WRT54G, but without success.
Is there any known problem with compatibility of these two items?

I cannot let the extender connect to my existing network on the Linksys router.

Any help is appreciated.

Regards,

Albert

  • Please check if "Short Preamble" option is enabled in WRT54G.

    If yes, disable it and try if WN2500RP is able to connect.
