Q2: How to set up the Universal Repeater Connection
In this case, we use wireless to connect to the root AP and then repeat the wireless signal by using the 2.4GHz
wireless interface to let the 2.4GHz wireless clients surf the internet.
Topology:
1. Before configuration, please ensure the root AP is already connected to the internet and the
DHCP server is enabled to let it able to assign IP address to the connected clients.
2. Please ensure there is no IP conflict in the existing network. Otherwise, please re-configure the
WNAP-W2201A using other IP addresses which should be in the same network segment. The
default IP address of the WNAP-W2201A is 192.168.1.253.
Step 1. In the WNAP-W2201A, go to “WLAN Basic Settings” to configure wireless mode to “AP” and then
check “Enable Universal Repeater Mode (Acting as AP and client simultaneously)”. Click “Apply
Changes” to take effect.
