WN3000RP disconnects
Just picked up my wn3000rp and hooked it up to my d-link dir-855 main router. All my wireless clients can connect to the extended network without any problems but... after 10 minutes the connection...
Have an Intel iMac, Airport Extreme basestation (APX), iPad, iPad2, iPhone4 and a recently acquired WN3000RP repeater. The iMac is not on the wireless network. Although the APX works great I had a range issue and got the repeater to solve it. For the first 2 weeks it worked as expected. Now it drops its connection to my network (green connection LED blinks off) about 2-3 minutes after it's selected to be my wireless network by one of my devices.
Repeated calls to tech support :( take me through the same troubleshooting steps each time despite my protests. Changing encryption, wireless channels, re-installing, resetting, etc. have resolved nothing. Problem persists. I suspect that WPS may be the problem but I've been unable to deactivate it. Green LED comes on no matter how I set up the repeater.
Any suggestions?
