Title: Need guidance
Post by: tomobrien10 on October 03, 2008, 10:59:07 AM
Hi all,

I'm trying to extend the range of my home network by using another router to repeat the wireless signal coming from my DIR-625,v.C.  I wrote to D-Link technical support and they answered me, but their instructions are too general for a newbie like myself.  Could someone take me through the procedure step by step?

Here is my question to technical support:

"How, exactly, do I configure a WDS link to another router that I want to use as a wireless repeater.  I have the other router configured in WDS with the DIR-625's MAC.  How do I configure the DIR-625 with the other router’s MAC for the 2nd half of the link?"


Here's D-link’s answer:

"From the e-mail it seems that you want to extend the wireless signal.

We suggest you to configure your AP in repeater mode.

You can scan in your AP & you will get MAC address of wireless router.

Use the MAC address of router to repeat wireless signal."


Thanks for any instructions  :)

Tom
