Help
I have got a wireless access point in our 3rd floor of our guesthouse, but the signal strenght is not good or excellent so i thaught better to put another wireless access point in order to repeat the signal and make it excellent or good,
I configured the second access point as wireless repeator mode, and i put the mac address of that other access which's signal should be repeated, and same name and SSID.
but when i turn on the device, computer get limited conectivity, they can't find the wireless router to get ip ( wireless router acting as dhcp server ), but when i trun off the repeator mode access point than it functions fine.
this access with repeator mode will be without line , will wirelessly repeat the signal of other access point, can anyone instruct me , first time configuring as repeator mode.
we have wireless router G acting as dhcp, and we have access poins in 1st floor, 2nd floor and 3rd floor ( models are WAP54G , V.3 1 ) in 3rd floor i wana put a repeator?
what should i do?
thanks

well,
The problem is so complicated, if i configure WEP than it interacts with the Wireless Router ( Acting As DHCP Server ) if i don't than it is unsecure network, so finally i decided to configure it as individual Acess point.
Thanks

OK, some experience here. Just joined so sorry for the delay. In repeater mode, you can only have 1 hop. You can go router, ap, ap, ap, etc, You must go router, ap, router, ap. I think you are trying too many hops. SRX is great and powerfull stuff. TRy that!
