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. -
