N150 Wireless ADSL2+ Modem Router DGN1000v3

The modem router can function either as a base station or as a repeater:

•Wireless base station. The modem router acts as the parent access point, bridging traffic to and from the child repeater access point, as well as handling wireless and wired local computers. To configure this mode, you need to know the MAC address of the child repeater access point.

•Wireless repeater. The modem router sends all traffic from its local wireless or wired computers to a remote access point. To configure this mode, you need to know the MAC address of the remote parent access point.

For you to set up a wireless network in a WDS, the following conditions need to be met for both access points:

•Both access points need to use the same SSID, wireless channel, and encryption mode.

•Both access points need to be on the same LAN IP subnet. That is, all the access point LAN IP addresses are in the same network.

•All LAN devices (wired and wireless computers) need to be configured to operate in the same LAN network address range as the access points.

•The channel selection on the access points cannot be Auto (see Basic Wireless Settings on page 30).

•The security option needs to be WEP (see Basic Wireless Settings on page 30).

Note: When you use the wireless repeating function, WPS becomes disabled.

Set Up the Base Station

The wireless repeating function works only in hub and spoke mode. The units cannot be daisy-chained. You need to know the wireless MAC addresses of all units. First, set up the base station, and then set up the repeater.

To set up the base station:

1.Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless Repeating Function.

The Wireless Repeating Function screen displays. The wireless MAC address of the modem router is displayed onscreen.

2.Select the Enable Wireless Repeating Function check box.
