Registration Not Possible
To
configure
the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater for the
first time
without
the WPS function, the WLAN adapter must be compatible with
the WPA/WPA2 encryption method. Check which kinds of en-
cryption your WLAN adapter supports and set WPA/WPA2 as the
encryption method on your WLAN adapter.
Possible Cause
The FRITZ!WLAN Repeater and your WLAN adapter cannot be
connected to each other via WPS.
Remedy
The WPS function on the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater can only be used
to connect with a WLAN access point. Therefore you have to
check whether the network name and the encryption of the
FRITZ!WLAN Repeater and of your WLAN access point are identi-
cal (factory settings). Then start the WPS function on your WLAN
access point and switch to the reception area of the
FRITZ!WLAN Repeater.
Possible Cause
A WLAN radio network in the vicinity of the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater
of your access point is causing interference.
Remedy
Test a different radio channel. If possible, configure your access
point so that it automatically searches for a suitable channel.
Possible Cause
The MAC address filter of the access point is enabled and the
FRITZ!WLAN Repeater is not entered as an exception in the MAC
address list of the access point.
Remedy
Enter the MAC address of the repeater as an exception in the
MAC address filter of the access point.
The FRITZ!WLAN Repeater cannot be registered at the access
point.
Possible Cause
On the access point the SSID is set to “hidden”.
