using 2 wn3000rp repeaters in cascade
hi i have a large area to cover with no hope of cabling. there are multiple floors and this is my current setup. now the problem is the 1st repeater works fine and gives me internet access. ...
Using one repeater will cut the wireless connectivity on your network into half. Lets say you have 54Mbps connection speed on your router. If you use a repeater you will get half of the 54Mbps from those computers connecting to the repeater. If you add another repeater which repeats the signal of another first repeater, it will be cut into half again. It is the possible reason why you cannot go online on your computers connecting to it. If what "idxpired" advised is not possible, you can try exchanging one of the repeaters with an access point. Use hardwired connection from the AP to the router (needs long ethernet cable though) and then repeat the signal of the AP. So you will have 3 wireless networks that you can connect inside your house.
