Making a repeater for my network

Hi all, I have two Wireless G routers. One's a Netgear and the other's a Linksys. I have the Netgear as my main router and I wanted to make the Linksys act as a repeater. The model is WRT54G version 6. I can't figure out how to make it a repeater. Do I need new firmware? Is it not possible to make it one? Are there any other ways I can use these two router together to make my network better? I really would like to put both of these to good use rather than just using one. Thanks in advance for any feedback, Mark

That's correct. The Linksys router that you have is only an access point. You may purchase a range expander. I do have one, though it does not extend 100% wireless connection, it gives extended wireless connectivity.

  • Onfigure a WAP54G to act as a repeater for my wireless network hosted by a Cisco/Linksys WAP610AP

    How can I configure a WAP54G to act as a repeater for my wireless network hosted by a Cisco/Linksys WAP610AP
    I am using ONLY 2.4GHz wireless band on the WAP610AP running Firmware Version 1.0.04
    The signal from WAP610AP is weak in my home office and I would like to use the WAP54G as the repeater. Is this possible? If yes, please help!
    TIA

    This statement is according to the WAP’s user interface: When set to "AP Client" and "WirelessBridge" mode, this device will only communicate with another Linksys Access Point (WAP54G). When set to "Wireless Repeater" mode, this device will only communicate with another Linksys Access Point (WAP54G) and Linksys Wireless-G Router (WRT54G). In a nutshell, the WAP54G may have a big possibility that it will not work on that device.

  • Setup Airport Express as a repeater for Time capsule network?

    Can any one provide detailed instructions, or provide a link where I can find these instructions?
    Current Setup: TimeWarner Cable Modem/Router (Arris TG852) > Time Capsule router (A1254)
    This has created two networks. One from the TW Router and the other from the TC. Even with both networks, I do not have great signal in the last two bedrooms, or bathroom.
    I have a Airport Express (A1264)
    Can someone explain how to set up the AE as a repeater, and offer any advice on how my network "should be" setup? Thanks
    In my reading, I believe this would be Dynamic WDS; correct?

    Thanks for the link. It says the below is by far the best way to extend for N networks.
    "For 802.11n Wi-Fi base stations, creating a roaming network is by far the best choice. This will provide the best throughput between the base stations and your Wi-Fi devices.
    This set up requires that your Wi-Fi base stations are connected via Ethernet.
    The primary base station provides DHCP Services, while the extended base station will be configured to use bridge mode.
    All Wi-Fi base stations within the roaming network should use the same passwords, security type (Open/WEP/WPA), and network name (SSID)."
    But, if my TC and Express are next to each other, how does that fix my wifi problems on the other side of my house?

  • Making a java program on network

    Hi,
    I am not an expert in java. So far all my small programs were for fun but now I am thinking of making a small CRM program to help my friend in his business.
    His office has two computers which are networked. So this small program which I am going to make for him to record phone calls, should be of networking program type. This is one the reason why I want to do this, because I have never done this before.
    Users from both the computer will be using the program simultaneously.
    Can you please give me some idea how to get started for some thing like this? I mean, I just dont know any thing about making a program run over network.
    Thank you,

    First you need to find a decent little database... the JavaDB would be fine for this or pretty much any DBMS. I prefer Oracle implementations. Then you need to find out how JDBC works and how to work with multiuser Databases.
    I also strongly recommend you spend some time HERE, learning more about Java.

  • Setup wired airport extreme (A1408) as repeater for TC (A1470)

    How do I setup an airport extreme (A1408) as a wired repeater for TC (A1470)?

    Power up the AirPort Extreme for a few minutes
    Hold in the reset button on the back of the Extreme for 8-10 seconds and release
    Allow a full minute for the Extreme to restart to a slow, blinking amber light
    Connect an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <--> ports on the TC to the WAN "O" port on the Extreme
    Open up Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utilty
    Click on Other WiFi Devices
    Click on AirPort Extreme
    The setup wizard will open up automatically and take a minute to suggest that the Extreme will be configured to extend the TC network.
    Type in a device name that you want to assign to the Extreme and click Next
    The utility will setup everything for you. Watch the screen closely to confirm that the Extreme is being configured to extend using Ethernet.  When you see the Setup Complete message, click Done.

  • Account-Setup for mixed network

    Happy New Year to everybody!
    Here's my problem: We have a mixed environment with lots of Wiindows and some Macs (ca. 30). We run a OS X server 10.3.9. All windows-machine got their login on the server but store the data locally.
    For the macs we haven't found a way of making them login to the network everytime they log in locally and still have them keep their data locally.
    We figured out it might be best to setup mobile accounts, but it seems as if we're too stupid to do so...
    We followed step-by-step the setup proposed in the Mac OS X Server-Handbook, but apparently we're missing a point there.
    When I log in a supposedly mobile account on a local machine it should create a new mobile account. But it doesn't. It just doesn't recognize the username and shakes desperately...
    What must we change in order to make the local machine check on the server, whether this user is a mobile account or not?
    Or does anyone have a better solution to solve this problem?
    All suggestions are gladly welcome!!!
    Thank you in advance

    The first being gui centric the latter being full of technical details.
    For to configure clients to query the server use DirectoryService.app -> LDAPv3.
    Use dscl to check if your client can succesfully query LDAP. See man dscl.

  • Stuck interrupt when scanning for wireless networks (Athero chipset)

    I'm working on getting wireless running on my Thinkpad T40 with an Atheros AR5211 a/b adapter. The ath5k module loads automatically, and the dmesg output seems to indicate that it is properly detecting the card:
    % dmesg|grep ath
    [ 4.767272] ath5k 0000:02:02.0: registered as 'phy0'
    [ 5.042780] ath: EEPROM regdomain: 0x61
    [ 5.042787] ath: EEPROM indicates we should expect a direct regpair map
    [ 5.042793] ath: Country alpha2 being used: 00
    [ 5.042796] ath: Regpair used: 0x61
    [ 5.478542] ath5k: phy0: Atheros AR5211 chip found (MAC: 0x42, PHY: 0x30)
    [ 5.478549] ath5k: phy0: RF5111 5GHz radio found (0x17)
    [ 5.478553] ath5k: phy0: RF2111 2GHz radio found (0x23)
    I brought the interface up using ip:
    % ip link show wlan0
    4: wlan0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether [redacted] brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    The trouble comes when I try to scan for wireless networks. I run "sudo iw dev wlan0 scan". At this point, the system becomes very sluggish, and the load average began to monotonically increase. The scan never completes; I left it for 15-20 minutes and cut it off when the load passed 3.5. The load average did not go down after iw was killed. Checking in top, the CPU was pretty evenly split between a kworker process and ksoftirqd, even with the scan terminated.
    I've searched around, and while there are all manner of problems reported with getting various wireless configurations to work, no one seems to get tripped up at the scanning phase like this. Does anyone know of diagnostics I could try (or perhaps other scan tools?) to narrow down what is actually causing the CPU to get hammered?
    Last edited by Gavster (2014-01-15 02:57:56)

    I got a chance to play around with this a bit more, trying wireless_tools this time:
    % sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
    wlan0 Failed to read scan data : Resource temporarily unavailable
    As before, the load average then continues to increase until the system becomes unusable. This would lead me to believe that I have a driver or kernel issue, since that would be the commonality between the two tools.
    The other interesting output is this:
    % dmesg|tail
    [ 280.973316] ath5k: phy0: too many interrupts, giving up for now
    [ 280.989985] ath5k: phy0: too many interrupts, giving up for now

    [ 281.109122] ath5k: phy0: too many interrupts, giving up for now
    Looking at longer tails, this message repeats many many times, interspersed with:
    net_ratelimit: 321 callbacks suppressed
    With various values for 321. Some interrupt getting stuck would make sense for why the load average blows up, but I really don't know how to fix that ...
    I verified on the ath5k site (http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Dri … rted_Chips) that my chip is supported:
    % lspci
    02:02.0 Ethernet controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR5211 Wireless Network Adapter [AR5001X 802.11ab] (rev 01)
    Any tips for what might cause a stuck interrupt like that?

  • [SOLVED] Scan for wireless networks at boot

    Lately I've been making extensive use of public wifi hotspots (libraries FTW), as mobile broadband is simply too unreliable to give me a persistent (and cheap) connection.
    Is it possible to use some combination of netcfg and wifi-select (or similar tools) to scan for wireless networks at boot?
    I've already got entries in rc.conf for my mobile dongle and automatically detecting ethernet connections, but it's pointless adding entries for whichever wireless profiles I might use as searching for these and discovering they don't exist just needlessly slows the boot process, whereas running something similar to wifi-select at boot (with a timeout so an unattended boot won't wait for me to make a selection) would avoid this.
    * Obviously I could just wait until the system has booted and then bring up the interface I wanted manually, but generally I only reboot my system after updates, and I only download updates at a wifi hotspot, so I was hoping to automate something here.

  • QA40 making usage decision for 03 lots with rejected MIC also

    Hi Friends ,
    QA40 is making Usage decision for 03 type lots having defects also and also for the lost having rejected MICs . can anybody explain why its so because SAP help has mentioned that for automatic UD there should be no rejected MIC .
    Regards

    What you are thinking about is QA10, not QA40.
    QA40's criteria for making the UD is based upon the order status.  I.e. the three radio buttons in the screen, orders completed, technically complete and confirmed.
    The idea is once one of these statuses is reached, you wouldn't have any more testing.  Also, it is not unusual to have out of spec results during in-process testing.  In many industries that would be the norm, not the exception as often times a step in the process has a test repeatedly perform until a certain result is achieved.  % water or % solids for instance.
    03 lots also do not control stock.  So it's not as critical that tests be in spec at this point to perform the UD.

  • Will WRT54GL act as repeater for WRT54GL??

    Im having trouble getting my WAP54g to speak with my wrt54gl. And the wrt54g is not available to purchase were i live, only the wrt54gl. So im thinking if the wrt54gl will speak flawlessly with another wrt54gl as repeater? Then i will buy another wrt54gl and flush the wap54gs down the toilet.
    thanks

    There is no way to set a 2nd WRT54GL as an Repeater. So you can buy 1 WRT54GL and a Range Expander WRE54G, As WRE54G is a Wireless Repeater and it will be best for your Network and it will solve your purpose. 

  • XML INVOICE Report RAXINV, Taxline is repeating for each invoice line

    Hi Tim
    Thanks a lot for your blog
    Greeting !!
    I have successfully created XML report for AR invoice Printing learning from your blog but stuck to a problem , whenever Invoice is having multiple lines ,say 20, then for each invoice line there is tax line printing 20 times like this:
    PART NO.| CUSTOMER PART#/DESCRIPTION | UNIT PRICE | QUNTITY|
    A123 | 34 WELD-ROD | 52 | 22 |
    Tax Exempt @ 0.00
    A234 | 238-AL WIER | 63 | 55 |
    Tax Exempt @ 0.00
    ........ Assume there are 20 lines then tax line also repeating 20 times which i don't want .It should get printed only once if it is same
    pls help me to achieve this
    Thanks
    Rahul

    Thanks Tim for Your Instant reply.
    I have gone through your duplicate line elimination but my requirement is not this
    I'll explain it, I am using LINE_DESCRIPTION tag for printing item description and this tag have two value for it, when the LINE_TYPE =LINE then LINE_DESCRIPTION tag is printing the line description and if LINE_TYPE =TAX
    then LINE_DESCRIPTION tag is printing the taxline information. Now if I have 20 lines in Invoice then the tax line will also repeat for 20 times, and if i use duplicate line elimination logic and I have same item it'll not print that item, some times whole invoice become blank.
    So I want to print 20 lines and out of that 15 lines are have same tax rate then it should print once at the end of 15th line and for remaining 5 lines if tax rate is different for each line then it should print at the end of each line (5lines)
    In the linetreevariable i used <xsl:variable xdofo:ctx="incontext" name="invLines" select=".//G_LINES [LINE_TYPE!='FREIGHT']"/> i.e. I want only line type=LINE and TAX
    Thanks

    Where is the hyphen on the apple TV?  I am trying to set up my network and there is a hyphen in the password for the network

    A few options to try:
    They hyphen should be next to the + on the character map.
    If you are still having issues, provided your ATV software is up to date, you can now connect an Apple Wireless Keyboard through bluetooth connections.
    Change your network password so it does not use a hyphen
    Good luck!

    Thanks for that 'sberman' - because my iPhone is backed-up to my work computer (only at this stage) I have had to call our IT Department in Adleaide. (4 times this morning). The last guy managed to get the phone into 'DFU Mode' - no more recovery mode screen - (kind of 'asleep' perhaps) from my understanding of same. I am awaiting a call again from IT so they can get my computer to actually recognise my iPhone on the C Drive. This also happened to  one of my colleagues in Newman (WA). She got so frustrated with the whole process that she bought another phone the next time she was in 'civilisation.' She hasn't had any problems since. (Cross fingers).
