lovely thanks for the new tutorial
i see only two key differnces from the tutorial i used (for wired networks)
1. the MAC addresses of all your wireless device should be entered in the "setup access" list in the advanced wireless menu of the router
2. the new tutorial asks us to keep the "channel" same across all repeaters and base station
However
i have followed the new tutorial
still the same problem persists
i have low signal ( in fact i can browse though the icon in system tray keeps showing " acquiring network address " - doesnt stabilise )
now if i change the channels
i.e channel 1 in base station
and channel 6 in repeater
i Get EXCELLENT signal ( something i have never gotten earlier)
BUT - no internet access
so in effect basically im still back to square one
i.e i can connect to the repeater by changing channels with excellent signal strength - but no internet access
or i can keep the same channels and have the same old low connectivity - making the repeater useless
what is wrong?
