N300 router (can't login router)
I had my N300 router set as repeater to extend the range of Wifi in our house, the main router is RangeMax Dual Band 3300, They are working fine. The wireless channel was set at 11, now I would like to change it to 5, I can do it on the RangeMax 3300 by login on to the router, but I can't login on the N300 router by type 192.168.1.1, Please help

- appple1AspirantI am trying to upgrade my networking system, got the N750 as master and other 2 N300 as repeaters
I followed this guide

But can't connect the repeaters to the master wirelessly. (my devices will connect the internet via the master, but not via the repeaters)
How can I find out what did I do wrong?
Thanks - jmizoguchiVirtuosoWEP or no security must be used.

How do you do this? - jmizoguchiVirtuosogoogle for google DNS and the have instruction as well
- appple1AspirantJust did a quick read on the subject, don't know how will it help with the repeating. but I will try it out.
Questions:
1.Do I put that on the Master, or do I have to put it on the repeaters also, how about the computers/ipads ?
2.There is a section on the Internet Setup page:
Domain Name Server Address
Currently the Get Automatically from ISP is checked, do I check the Use These DNS Servers and put 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 in the Primary DNS and Secondary DNS
Thanks - jmizoguchiVirtuosoComputer.........
- appple1AspirantSo I have to do this on every computers/laptops/mobile devices, right?
And how is that going to make the repeating work?
