WAC120 as Repeater?
I know it's ten years old, but I'm hoping to discover the settings to make my WAC120 access point [ethernet cabled to ISP's modem] work as a repeater.
I want it to use the same SSID and password as the main modem so as a device moves closer to it it picks up automatically. Can it do this or does it have to have its own SSID and password?
I've gone through all the Wireless Bridging parts of the manual (having noted the modem's channel, MAC and IP) but I don't think it's actually picking up the modem's signal.
Thanks anyone.

Can't see any generic usage with a random wireless router.
