masculin -

Hello,

so I just bought an EDIMAX EW-7206APg access point and I want to configure it via my Linksys WAG200G Wi-Fi router,

I was able to access the EDIMAX configuration page as indicated in the manual; I connect on the local network but not

to the internet.

Thank you for your help

Configuration: Windows 7 / Chrome

    Hello,

    To access your Edimax access point, please first connect it directly to your PC via an Ethernet cable.

    Please temporarily assign your network card an address of the type

    192.168.2.10
    255.255.255.0

    Once done, you need to enter the IP address of the Edimax access point, by default: http://192.168.2.1
    login:admin
    pass:1234

    At this point, you must define how the Edimax access point should be configured, that is to say in Access Point mode? Repeater?

    ACCESS POINT MODE
    In the case of Access Point mode, you just need to define the router:

    AP
    SSID: define a name
    Security: define a WPA/WEP encryption

    In this mode, the access point must be connected to your main router.

    REPEATER MODE

    This mode allows the access point to connect to the main wifi to propagate/extending the wifi

    In principle, you just need to set the access point to Universal Repeater

    - select from "Survey site" to connect to the main wifi
    - set the same security as your main wifi

    Please do not hesitate to contact our technical support if needed

    Once the configuration is done, you can revert the IP address to the default of your ethernet card.

      Hello, I set up a network with two EDIMAX modems, with the first one in AP mode and the second one in repeater mode. Both modems are also configured in bridge mode to avoid using a firewall.

      I configured everything, and the two modems are connected together when I check the status. However, when I connect via Ethernet to the repeater, I don't have Internet access. On the other hand, if I connect via Wi-Fi to the access point, I get Internet.

      Hello,
      I used to have an SFR box and at that time, I managed to install an Edimax extender. I've changed my box (N6) and I'm absolutely no longer able to reinstall my repeater. Can you help me?
      Thank you in advance.
