Repeater Clients can't see internet
Posted on 2004-04-15
I am having problems configuring a DWL 1000AP+ in repeater mode to extend the range of a wireless network. Setup is as follows.
Internet > DSL-604 > Wireless Link > DWL-1000AP + > Wireless Clients
192.168.0.1 192.168.0.50
V
V
Wireless Clients
Both boxes are set up to issue addresses by DHCP to clients. The 604 issues IPs in the range 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.0.99. The DWL-1000AP+ Issues 192.168.0.100 - 192.168.0.199. The repeater is told to ignore DHCP and always use 192.168.0.50.
Wireless Clients of the repeater (provable by having IPs in it's range) are able to ping 192.168.0.1 and get a response but are unable to access the internet. Domain names are not being resolved even when the client is told to use a known DNS server on the internet (The same one allocated to the DSL-604 by the ISP).
The repeater does know that its gateway is 192.168.0.1
Any idea what I need to do to get this working?
