R6220 Repeater Mode Issues
Setting up the new router in repeater mode. Follow the steps in the guide including mirroring the base station wireless settings, turning off security, inputing the MAC address for the base station, etc. All this seems to do is create a second network entitled "mynetwork 2" which is unsecured. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Hi winded1111,
1. What is the model number and firmware version of the base station router?
2. What is the firmware version of the R6220?
3. Please make sure that you also input the MAC address of the repeater to the base station router.
