Hello,
I recently switched to Bouygues with a Bbox sensation and I am very satisfied, except for the weak Wi-Fi range.
I had already addressed this problem with my previous provider by using a repeater (Hercules HWGEXT54).
It worked perfectly, and when I tried to apply it to my fiber Bbox, it became more complex...
After several attempts, my repeater recognized it and claims to be connected. When I connect to the repeater’s network with the Bbox password, it shows my tablet as "connected" but I have no Internet access.
Here are the details:
Bbox IP: 192.168.1.254.
Repeater IP: 192.168.1.100.
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.1.254.
When I go into the repeater settings, here's what I have:
Wi-Fi network emitted via Bbox-XXX_ext
RF channel used: 6
Wi-Fi mode mixed (g+b)
SSID network name not hidden
Internal DHCP is enabled as follows:
Starting IP: 192.168.1.101
Ending IP: 192.168.1.201.
Default gateway: 192.168.1.254.
DNS server: 192.168.1.254
Finally, I have not applied any MAC filtering.
Could someone tell me how to properly configure this repeater so that I can access my Wi-Fi throughout the rest of my apartment?
Thank you.
