I had some difficulty at first because I had security enabled on the AP as WPA2-Personal Mixed, which is basically WPA2-AES or WPA-TKIP simultaneously. I played around with other security settings later on the AP and found the 2 power cycles to be unnecessary after the 2 had originally sync'ed- no idea why this would work, but it did. After the power cycles the % quality displayed around 30%.

Before doing 2 power cycles on the repeater, the MAC address would display on the AP's Status>Wireless tab, but with 0% signal quality. You can confirm that the repeater has synchronized with the AP by going to the Status>Wireless tab on the AP and viewing the MAC address of the repeater with some % signal quality value. After the power cycle it has been working flawlessly.Įdit - pmiller - I can also confirm the power cycling to sync the repeater to the AP. I spent 20 minutes trying different things to no avail before I finally gave in and tried power cycling it twice (I honestly didn't believe it would do anything). This has worked for four repeater bridges for me.Įdit - Altair - In my experience the above advice of power cycling the router has been confirmed.

You will then have to power cycle the repeater twice ( unplug and plug back in twice ) in order for the repeater bridge and AP to synchronize. between the AP and the repeater bridge you have to start with the AP first then the repeater bridge.When you enable security on the repeater click save not apply, then click on the administration tab scroll down to the bottom and click apply settings. I simply have not experimented with this.Īlso when your adding WEP,WPA,WPA2 etc. There are some factors to consider when setting up Security for Client Bridge mode that may or may not be factors when setting up Repeater Bridge mode.

Keep in mind any security settings will need to be configured including MAC filtering in order for the Secondary Router to connect to the Primary Router and also for clients connecting to the Secondary Router to gain full access to the connectivity of the Primary Router. Some people argue the physical interface can also be the same in order to support roaming (see Repeating Mode Comparisons) Security Basic Settings', you must use the primary router's SSID for the physical interface and a new SSID for the virtual interface.
