are you trying to run it in extender mode or in access point mode. it won't work that way in access point mode.
in extender mode, it should function as a standard ethernet port. Is it extending the wireless network (to make sure its setup properly)?
One thing to check on though (with your credit card terminal company) is if the terminal requires a static IP address/routing setup.
Thanks for the response.
