Setting Up the Base Station
The wireless repeating function works only in hub and spoke mode. The units cannot be daisy
chained. You must know the wireless settings for both units. You must know the MAC address of
the remote unit. First, set up the base station, and then set up the repeater.
To set up the base station:
1.
Set up both units with exactly the same wireless settings (SSID, mode, channel, and security).
Note that the wireless security option must be set to
None
or
WEP
.
2.
From the main menu of the browser interface on the wireless router base unit, under
Advanced, click

check box and the
Wireless Base Station
radio button.

Enter the MAC address for the repeater units.
