Configure WNDR4300 as base and WNDR3700v3 as access point to create a bridge
I am trying to create a wireless bridge to connect ethernet components in one part of my home to the internet. The intenert connection comes through a cable modem connected to my wireless router WNDR4300. I want to re-purpose a WNDR3700v3 to bring the internet access to devices which do not have wireless capability (DVD Player and Roku) but have ethernet ports. I followed the instructions for each of the routers (different), but I must have missed or done something wrong, because it didn't work. Can someone help? Thanks. JuanSolved
Wireless repeater function missing - now what do I do?
I just moved to a new place. The front and back of the apt are a fair distance from each other. The N750 router's in the back of the building, wifi is weak in the front. Stringing ethernet cable is not an option so so I planned to use a spare N600 as a repeater in the front If I'm reading forum posts correctly, the repeater function has been discontinued. Is this true? Why? More important, what do I do now to get decent wifi in the front of the house? Is setting up another cable modem connection a possibility? There is a Comcast cable in the front, can I set it up there? If so, can I use the same name? Any help on where to go from here is much appreciated. EdBSolvedProblem setting up WNR614 as Wifi Repeater / Range Extender
Hi, I have a Wifi ADSL2+ Modem (Beetel 450tc1) which I use to connect to my computer. Recently I have purchased a new Netgear WNR614 Wifi Router and want to use as a range extender. I connected the netgear repeater to wifi modem with cable and another cable from netgear router to computer. It opened routerlogin.net at the start. In documentation it mentions that I should use same SSID, same channel, encryption method and same password in netgear router. As soon as I put the repeater on same channel, my computer stops opening routerlogin.net and it gives page not found error. Also when router starts it gives message that "To avoid a conflict with your Internet Service Provider, your router's IP address has been updated to 10.0.0.1". My modem IP address is 192.168.1.1. So when I try to change netgear router ip address to 192.168.1.2, it is giving me error "The ip address conflict with the WAN IP subnet. Please enter a different ip address. Invalid DHCP starting IP address". When I remove the Use Router as DHCP server, it gives me error - "The ip address conflict with the WAN IP subnet. Please enter a different ip address". When I try to enable "Enable Wireless Repeating Function", it gives me erorr - "The wireless repeating function cannot be used with Auto Channel". But when I change the Auto Channel to the same channel as of my modem (channel 1), my computer stops opening routerlogin.net and I can't access the netgear router config settings any more. The only option I left with is resetting the router. Please help me. ThanksSolved53KViews0likes17CommentsWNDR3700v4 v1.0.2.78 Firmware V1.0.2.78
After upgrading my WNDR3700v4 to firmware version V1.0.2.78, I find that I am no longer able to use it as a wireless repeater base station. I had been using it in this fashion previously, but the option no longer appears under Advanced Setup. Was this removed, or was it moved to a different area? Please help. I'm in an old house, and the lathe and plater plays havoc with getting a good wireless signal to reach very far. Thanks for any help, Brian WilliamsSolved
