WN2000RPTv2 Connecting To Wireless Network But No Internet
I recently purchased a WN2000RPTv2 to extend the wireless in my house. I've ran through the setup multiple times with multiple browsers (IE, Firefox, and Safari). Each time it properly detects my home...
Hi guys.
We just bought the extender for a classroom at work to get better connection there from our wifi network.
I have the same extender at home, but with old firmware and i have NEVER had any problem there.
When we bought it today (new firmware) we have alot of problems. We are using the wizard to set connection up.
Selecting the SSID to connect to, writing the WEP passphrase to get it going. pushing next, next and then connection done.
Now we are connected to the router.
But, we dont get a IP-adress. When we conencted trough a phone with WPA2 we got connection and IP-adress and could surf the internet.
But when we are trying to connect to the router with WEP, we dont get a connection or IP-adress.
Anyone here knows how to get this working? We have been trying for 6 hours now, but still cant get any further.
Sorry for my english.
