Happy to report
its working at last!
a big thank you to jmizoguchi for his continued support and ggift_1029 too
For the benefit of other im posting how it worked
i followed the following tutorial to the T
http://vpncasestudy.com/download/WDS/WDS_Concept.pdf
the trick was the powercycle
i did it in the opposite direction
conventional wisdom would say to first start the modem,base,repeater and lastly the device
i did the exact opposite
you then check the router status of the base and repeater to check which wireless devices are connected
the repeater should show your notebook , ipad and an unknown device which is actually your base - showing the base is most important
the base should show - the repeater as a connected wifi device in the "attached devices tab
P.S i am using the same channel on the repeater and base
