I recently purchased a Berkin Access Point/Range Extender. After playing around with the AP, I was unable to figure out how to get it into the repeater mode. I call Berkin and they told me that I can only use it as a repeater if I use it with another Berkin AP or router. I thought this was rather odd, I thought all I needed to do was to specify a ssid and have it repeat it.
Is this true though, I double-check the other vendors, Dlink at least indicated that they will work with just about any 801b or g router or AP. I like to be able to reuse the extender at different locations. For example, if I visit my friend, it would be nice to extend the network to the patio. He doesn't use the same brand of AP as I do.
