WG602UK V4 In repeater Mode
Hi,
I have just bought a WG602 to increase the range of my DGN1000 wireless router. Having read the documentation, as I understand it I think I need it in repeater mode as it will not be plugged in. I have checked the DGN1000 has WDS and have entered the MAC code and set the SSID, wireless channel, and security the same. I can connect to the router, but I get a limitied connection with no internet.
I have set these up in access point mode using powerline adaptors, but never in any other mode. Any help greatly appriciated.
Many Thanks

Thanks for replying jmizoguchi,
I changed the security to WEP, and then off and it still isnt working either way. The DGN1000 does appear in the Station List however. I have to deploy this round someones house in the next few days so and ideas would be great :)- you are other best shot is wn2000rp extender instead.
keep higher encryption... best way to do it
