The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

How to use Wireless Access Point to boost signal from Wireless ADSL Router?

Asked by RBedewi in Wireless Technologies, Wireless Local Area Network, Wireless Network Access Points

Tags: access, point, 3com, boost, signal

Right now our setup is as follows:

ADSL Line > 3Com ADSL Wireless Router > computer (by lan or wireless access).

The above works with no issues. We can connect to the Internet via router wireless access.

When the setup is as follows:

ADS: Line > 3Com Wireless Router > Dlink Wireless Access Point > computer

We cannot connect through the access point to the net. Only through the router.

Both devices support WDS but this is not used. Device specs:

Wireless Router: 3COM Officeconnect ADSL router WL-552
Wirless Access Point: Dlink DWL-2100AP

We just want to use the Access Point to boost the signal. The router is on the first floor and I want to put the AP on the staircase to boost signal to the second floor.

COmps use Wind XP Pro.

Can someone help? Encrytion is required at some point but for this question we can leave it out.

Thanks,
Clint
