Really? Then why do they tell you in the setup instructions to go to www.mywifiext.net to make configuration changes after the initial setup?

Try it... If it resolves your problem, then you know what is causing it (maybe too short key life time??).All depends what channels are in use by other networks in your area. The game is to use a channel that is as far as possible from other networks (both sides).

Nope, that is not the problem. It appears to be that this happens when I am trying to cascade the repeaters. Once the second one connects to the first one, it is impossible to connect to the first one AND you have no internet access through the second one.

Cascading repeaters AND using DHCP is really pushing it. Apart from very low throughput, you should really try to solve that problem otherwise (thought about Powerline adapters or plain old cabling?)

For some reason even connecting the second one to the first one totally borks both of them. To get the first one to work properly again, you have to either reset or unplug the second one and then power cycle the first one.

Cabling really won't work unless i want to buy another wireless router or access point that can connect to the main router via cabling since we need the wireless for visitors. The WN3000RP does not support connecting to the router via the Ethernet port.
I can get an O.k.-ish connection to the router with the second one, but I do get some packet loss. I'll have to check some other locations to plug the second one into and see if I get a good enough signal to the conference room where we need it.

We need it to be password protected wireless because it is an outside line and we don't want domain computers being hooked up to the external connection.
