Setting Up A DLAN Wireless Extender Connection?

Mar 18, 2013

find the IP address of the dLAN Wireless Extender so I can go into advanced settings to set up the name, password etc. The Extender config tool provided cannot find it.I replaced my cheap WiFi extender which used to drop the connection all the time with a Devolo dLAN 200 AV Wireless-N Starter Kit, which was highly praised all over the place.How I set it up. The manual clearly states both the single Etherner port plug and the 3-ethernet plug should be slotted directly into the mains sockets which I have done. The smaller, single ethernet plug connects to my Router with the ethernet cable provided. The bigger plug is plugged into a different socket without any other cables attached. The power, house(dLAN), ethernet lights are green on both as well as the Wifi light is green on the extender.I used the dLAN cockpit program to add the Extender by entering the security code on the back, now both of them show up in the Cockpit interface and say "ON". I have the option to change the password for the entire network via the Cockpit, which I did. I assumed that's all the plug & play I had to do to make it work. Wrong. I cannot connect wirelessly at all. The network shows in the available list as devolo-000.......... with full signal, I click it, enter the password, it says authenticating and then drops.

The whole purpose for this is to have an extended Wifi Network around the house where the router cannot reach. But I cannot connect. Now i was reading on Davolo site where it says " You can set up or change the configuration of the dLAN® 200 AV Wireless N via the web interface. To access this interface, simply enter the known IP address of the product into any web browser (e.g.Internet Explorer) or call up the web interface via the dLAN® Cockpit."I also checked that apparently, the newer version, the dLAN 500 has a "config" button in the Cockpit application which takes you directly to the web interface to set up your wifi, but the 200 does not. I do not know what the IP address of the Extender is, I do not know how to reach the interface via my browser. I did have a feeling it had to be done because firstly I wanted to change the name of the Wifi network but couldn't figure out where.

I would also like to add that a program included in the set-up disc, called dLAN Wireless Extender Configuration doesn't seem to find it, so I cannot enter to look at any settings. It pops up with "the dLAN wireless extender was not found. is the dLan wireless extender switched on and properly connected to this computer's local network?"

Setting Up Wireless Range Extender For Sony Bravia TV?

May 7, 2011

On instruction from reviews of the TV on amazon, i bought a TP-Link wireless range extender to set up as a client/repeater (not sure which to use) to connect wirelessly to my router in another room so i can connect an ethernet to the TV for online functions without an overpriced Sony wireless dongle.I connect the device to the router, assign a random IP in the same subnet as my lan (since it has the same default address as my router) and set the default gateway to my router's IP address (assuming this is what it is asking for) and set the device to either client or repeater mode (unsure of which i need so have tried both) and everything seems fine until this point. However, I set the device to WEP security and set the WEP key to the same as my router as the instructions say and my router instantly loses it's internet connection entirely and repeatedly tries to reconnect and fail until i disable WEP security on the wireless range extender, at which point it successfully reconnects.

Feb 23, 2013

Region : Portugal
Model : TL-WR841ND
Hardware Version : V8
Firmware Version :
ISP :

Yesterday I bought this router to extend my wifi signar from my cable router. Now I know that it is possible using the WR841ND as an wifi extender using third-party firmwares but what I like to know is if there is any way to make the router work like that but using the original firmware. I followed a guide that explained how to do it but the only thing I can do is extend the wireless signal without the internet acess.

Wireless :: Netgear WN3000RP Wireless Range Extender Security Setting?

Jan 2, 2012

I have just purchased a Netgear WN3000RP wireless extender.The security setting on all devices on the existing network show as WPA2-PSK wireless n but the extender comes up as WPA-PSK wireless g although the instructions say it will copy existing security settings.There is supposed to be a Netgear website to log on to an installation wizard but this doesn't work and appears not to have worked for some months.Why are Netgear still selling this device without an installation disc when they must know by now that their site doesn't work?Is there any way to alter the security setting of the extender?

Wireless Extender Not Keeping A Connection?

Oct 17, 2012

I have a wireless repeater (NETGEAR Universal Wifi Range Extender WN2000RPT) thats been giving me issues lately when attempting to use it to connect an xbox 360 I have to xbox live. The Xbox and the repeater are connected by an ethernet cable so there is no wireless connection going on between them. My router (Cisco WRVS4400N Wireless-N Gigabit Security Router with VPN) located in the basement of my house, and the extender is on the second floor of my house. The xbox that I want to connect to the internet is located on this second floor and because of the distance between it and my router a normal xbox wireless networking adapter doesn't seem to be working.Anyway, if I plug in the extender and let it get a connection, and use it right away to connect, i have no issues. The connection will also usually remain working for a while after I first get it working. The problem comes after I'm done using the xbox and i shut off the console and the tv. When I come back to the xbox later and turn it on, the networking extender still shows it has a full connection and is working properly on the outside with the green lights, but the xbox will not connect and it will tell me the extender is not assigning an IP automatically (DHCP turned off), when I know for a fact it is turned on. It is almost like the extender freezes after I leave it alone and on for a while. When this happens I usually unplug it and let it connect, and everything works as it should again. After a while its gotten a little annoying having to do this every time I need connection.

Wireless Network Extender With LAN Connection?

Jan 9, 2012

my bt home hub is a far way from my desktop pc. i was using a old wireless network adapter to connect my pc to the wireless connection, it was slow and would always drop. today i brought a high performance gaming network card for my pc( just lan no wirelss), and i also brought a tp-link 300mpbs wireless N access point,i had the idea that i can use the extender to pick up the network, then run a lan cable from the wireless extender to my desktop pc, the guy in the pc shop told me this would work.ive been working on it all day and cannot get it to work, ive used different settings such as client mode,bridge ap mode and repeater mode. i also made a static ip, when the tp-link is plugged into the pc, i can ping to it, but when i try one of the connections. i just get unidentfied network - no internet access. i can connect to the tp-link via wireless with an adapter but i wanted to make use of the network card i just brought!

Setting Up A Wireless Connection Is Not Allowed

Feb 13, 2013

I just moved into a university residence. Setting up a wireless connection is not allowed - instead we have one ethernet port on the wall. As a result, we can only have one computer connected to the internet at a time via this wired connection. The problem is, I live with my partner and we both need internet access for our separate computers. We both need to be online at the same time. What is the easiest and most simple way to accomplish this? I don't know much about hubs, routers, and switches. I imagine there should be some sort of basic splitting device I could plug into wall which would allow 2 computers to use the ethernet port.

Setting Up Wireless Router To College Internet Connection ISP

Aug 31, 2011

Just moved into apartment in Ann Arbor and am forced to use this ISP. They are not wireless friendly. Their manual sucks and will only provide tech support for $80/hour. I bought a Belkin router and got it working for my MacBook. BUT my roommate can't connect, even tho her MacBook sees the network. And I can't print to my wireless printer even tho it says everything is fine when I run the wireless diagnostics.The ISP has these rules:

- Only connect the router to the Internet or Wan port. Do not connect to the numbered ports (how do I know whether or not I've done that?)
- Do not use static IP addresses
- Do not run a DHCP server

Dell :: D820 Steps For Setting Up Wireless Connection To D-Link 1310 Router

Jan 7, 2012

I have just started using my D-Link 1310 Router after quite a few years of it laying around.  I managed to get as far as connecting my D820 and my Desktop in a basic Network.   I have Windows XP Home on both the Desktop and Laptop.  The next step I want to accomplish is making the Laptop wireless with my apartment.  When I first had the Router, I of course had Technical Support and my Warranty with Dell was still active, so I was walked through the process and took notes.  The only file I made note of for this step was installing the driver (US) WLAN Card Rev.A12, but there must be something else that enables the WiFi catcher because I don't have any icon in the System Tray and no way to access it. 

I also remember it being necessary to Bridge the Modem and Router, (I believe we did it from the Verizon site).  Though I was told recently that Bridging is not used anymore, now they do a thing called "Double Netting"?

Cisco :: ASA 5505 - Setting A VPN Connection

I am wondering if this Cisco ASA 5505 Box is overkill for what I need?I have just become network admin to a small office that host two domains.

[code]...

Some of the clients are requesting a connection to the office from remote locations for file access and what not. So would implementing a Cisco ASA 5505 be overkill? I am a bit nervous of going forward as I have never had to "setup" an ASA box and dont want to kill the network.If I should NOT use this box, what should I use for a VPN connection?

Cannot Connect To Netcomm Wireless N Extender?

Jul 9, 2012

I recently just bought a Netcomm NP124 wireless extender as a computer on the other side of my house does not get within the range of my routers wireless.So i have opened the package and followed the step by step manual of how to set it up. it is as follows:

1. to initially set up the product we recommend you plug the NP124 into a power socket near both you existing router and computer (DONE successfully)

2. Plug the supplied Ethernet cable into your NP124 and connect the other end to the computer (DONE successfully)

*this is where the problem lies*

3. you can connect your devises through the web user interface. to open the web browser (internet explorer, Firefox, etc) and type 192.168.20.1 into the address bar and hit enter.

4. When prompted add in the username and password.

Before i keep going i must tell you that my desktop computer doesnt have wireless but my modem/router does so i connect my computer to my router via an ethernet cable.There are further steps but i cannot get past step 3. When i attempt to type the IP in the URL it says "problem loading page", "unable to connect". At all times my phone line is connected to my modem/router. These are the cable variations i have tried:

a) -ethernet from computer to NP124
-No ethernet connection from modem/router to computer
**this is the procedure outlines in the manual, does the manual assume i have a wireless connection
to the internet in my desktop?**

b) -ethernet from the computer to the modem/router
-ethernet from the NP 124 to the moder/router

c) now using an Ethernet hub:
-(ALL) NP124, modem/router and desktop connected to the hub at the same time

I cannot see why the IP does not connect, without this stage i cannot enter the wireless settings of the NP124. I have tested to see if other IP addresses work in the URL (eg the modems 192.168.1.1) and it works but the NP124 doesnt.

Using A Wireless Router As A Range Extender?

Jun 16, 2012

I started out with a wireless router/modem that my ISP provides as its default modem. It was and still is working fine. We will call this router A. My uncle who is living with me wasn't receiving the wifi signal in his room so he went and bought a different router that is supposed to have more range. Also, I believe it is capable of providing higher speeds wirelessly, but that is really irrelevant I think. We can call this new router B. I currently have router B running through router A with an ethernet cable into a LAN port- LAN port to LAN port. I basically want B to be a wireless range extender.My question is quite simple actually. I have everything up and running just fine, but it seems as if the wireless signal may still be coming from the old router A.
