Alright, I'm having problems with my wireless router. The way everything is set up it all works just fine most of the time. All of the computers can see each other and normally access the internet. It usually stops working whenever someone tries to transfer a file across the wireless. Occasionally, it also just stops working at random intervals. These problems can be solved by resetting the wireless AP(DWL-900AP+).

Here is a diagram of the setup.
LAN setup

Also, DHCP is turned on in the BEFW11S4 and is off in the NR041 and DWL-900AP+. The DWL-900AP+ is connecting to the BEFW11S4 as a client.

make sure you are using the same encryption format between both your wireless routers.

what do you mean by 'encryption format', they are both using the same 128-bit WEP key if that is what you are referring to

ok, instead of setting the DWL 900ap as a wireless client set it to repeater mode. i think you need to imput the mac address LAN side of your wireless router.

under repeater mode it will cut your bandwidth in half though.
