Good Day
I was wonder if anyone has had setup the DI-604 Wireless Router and the DWL-900AP+ wireless access point, and having the access point set as a wireless repeater. The building that I have them set up in is a 2 floor building.
The problem that I am having is the machines on the 1st floor cannot get a proper signal from the wireless router(on the 2nd floor), but there is a signal(used a program called netstumbler, signal strenght is about half, or low on the xp wireless util), so what I setup was the AP in repeater mode(mac address of the wireless router on the 2nd floor) and was able to get an ip, and access to the internet fine, it worked fine for about 2 months. Now will not give internet access on the 1st floor, but can still get an ip address occasionally,and everything is setup the same as before. The only thing that I can think of off hand is that the building is steal/brick and cinderblocks. Would that be causing any problems, other than that, im out of ideas.
Note - as far as I can remember the firmware of both units is up to date, I normally update them to latest when I set them up. Sorry about the long windedness
