What will I see when doing site survey with WRT and WRE?

I have just successfully setup with security, my WRE54G to my WRT54GS.  It wasnt easy, lots of resets and disabling of security, but I didnt have to set a statis IP (which I am happy about)
However, now that I am searching for a connection on my laptop (wirelessly) I see to available networks but both are with the same name (the name of my original wireless network).
Is this right?  If so, this gets confusing as I am not sure which I am connecting too.
Then if I change from one to another, I have to enter in the passphrase, which gets annoying.
Is there anyway to have a differnent name of my Wireless network vs the Wireless Expander?

The RE, as I understand it, just extends the router signal that it is connected to. That is why it is imperative that the setup be EXACTLY the same. In my case, I stupidly put some capital letters in my SSID but didn't put them in when I setup the RE. Took me the longest time to figure that out....That you see two "networks" on site survey is OK. That you can connect to them differently is weird and that you have to enter the security passphrase suggests that you really haven't been successful in setup. So, Dibbler's advice is correct. Make sure the router and RE settings are the same and the firmware is upgraded.
I can't tell what device I am connected to and I really don't care. I just know that the place I was connecting from prior to the RE was far from the router and I would get the "limited connection" warning and no internet. With the RE and closer to my laptop, I always get "excellent" signal and an internet connection. I assume I'm connecting to the RE but it is seamless.
Also, make sure you the supply the MAC address of the router if the RE is v.1. Got that from the full user guide at the Linksys WRE54g product page.
If you really want different SSIDs I think you need to get a bridged access point.

  • Error -200141 when doing buffered events with DAQmx and PCI-6602

    When doing buffered events with DAQmx and PCI-6602 I get error 200141 - Data was overwritten before it could be read by the system.
    This error is generated ONLY with random inputs >200/sec.
    My setup is :
    DAQmxCreateCIVCountEdges(taskhandle,"Dev1/ctr3"....
    DAQmxCG+FGSampClkTiming(taskhandle,"/Dev1/FPI35",...
    DAQmxSetCICountEgdesChan(taskhandlem,"", "/Dev1/80MHZTimeBase")
    DAQmxSetChanAttribute(taskhandlw,",",DAQmx_CI_DataXferMech,DAQmx_Val_DMA,0);
    Can somebody help ?

    i'm getting the same Error-200141, while reading semiperiods. (Meas_Buffered semiperiod continous)
    while loop ex.rate seems to be pulsewidth*no.Samples to read. in my case PW=60ms
    Input buffer size measured with Property node= 10000
    why this error happens?? i cant use any mode other than implicit timing for semi-period measurement right??
    more info: all the ai channels are used ~ 16 differencial.
    i found one solution which is _ reinitializing the whole task if an error occur. is this the right way??
    Kudos always welcome for helpful posts

  • Site Survey with 7920 phone

    I have a multiple 7920 phone and multiple AP in my environment. Some of the phones are hardware version 2 and others are version 1.
    When I do a site survey with 2 phones at the same exact spot I see diffrefnt signal strengths with each phone. both of the phones are set to the same transmit power and both phones are associated with the same AP. If I hold both phones togather and walk arount both phone will show huge diffences in signal strength. I would expect to see some minor diffrences but usualy the diffrence is 10 or more.
    any thoughts?

    RSSI is a relative # and the 7920 averages the last 5 scans. Depending on the scan times these could be different and will almost never be indentical.
    Also ensure these are both running 1.08 firmware.
    There are only minor tooling differences in rev2 hardware.

  • My iPad does not have sound when on the Internet, including YouTube, but does have sound with iTunes and other apps.  How can I correct this?

    My iPad does not have sound when on the Internet, including YouTube, but does have sound with iTunes and other apps.  How can I correct this?

    If you are sure that you have sound in other apps - and if you can still hear keyboard clicks and get notifications, then system sounds are not muted. Try this and see if it works.
    Close all apps completely and reboot the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • When does iphone5s 1528 with iphone6,2 support china unicom's 4g lte network?

    When does iphone5s 1528 with iphone6,2 support china unicom's 4g lte network? Before I activate the cell phone, I could see the 4g at the left corner on the screen, but once I activated the cell phone, the 4g disappeared and 3g instead. It was a terrible experience. It seems that my phone support 4g but Apple and China Unicom disable the functionality.

    All the information you need is right here: http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
    Notice there is no mention of WiMax.
    It doesn't really matter anyway as Sprint is rolling their WiMax network down for use by MVNOs. Actual Sprint customers will not have access to WiMax at all. It was a failed experiment.

  • When I turn on firefox the sound of an alarm begins and keeps going. I did not download or add or open anything. A sound like the old pacman game initiates the never ending alarm. It does not occur with safari and ends if I close firefox.

    When I turn on firefox the sound of an alarm begins and keeps going. I did not download or add or open anything. A sound like the old pacman game initiates the never ending alarm. It does not occur with safari and ends if I close firefox.
    == This happened ==
    Not sure how often
    == I opened firefox

    dont have google open in a tab!!!!!!!!
    (if you are one who opens FF and it opens google then immediately open another tab to go to a site then just visit the site from the page that opened without opening a new tab)
    OR
    if you have cool preview then disable that
    (the sound is for the celebration of 30 years of pacman and you can play the game on google's homepage)

    I have always synced my iPhone with my PC, what will happen if I sync my iPhone with my new Macbook Air?
    I am hoping to switch from being dependent solely on my PC to rarely using it and having freedom to use either more Mac/iPhone and less PC, but I have my MSOffice software on the PC .
    I want to sync my iPhone and not lose anything and have a faster experience.
