I have recently purchased the ENH210EXT and being unfamiliar with networking of any sorts, I have followed the instructions within the manual to set up the unit as I thought that it should be.
Here is what I have:
Desktop computer connected to Smart RG SR300N modem/router. The modem/router has 4 LAN ports with 3 being open.
Here is what I am "trying" to do:
Connect the ENH210EXT (placed outside) by way of a CAT5e cable, to the Smart RG modem/router, so that wireless is available outside.
My current installation is as follows:
1. Desktop computer is connected online by a modem/router via Ethernet cable.
2. ENH210EXT is connected to the modem/router through one of the LAN Ethernet ports on the back.
3. ENH210EXT was set up in the Access Point Mode and configured for Windows 7 per the step-by-step instructions.
4. Selecting Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4), then Properties, the IP address / subnet mask and the default gateway that were given in the manual were imputed.
5. All configurations were saved.
6. Wi-FI analytics show that the home wireless and the EnGenius are detected.
My issue:
1. After setting everything up, I am able to see that the wireless capabilities of the ENH210EXT are working, but when I attempt to go online from my desktop, I am not able to connect.
2. Textbox stating that there is a Network Error. Windows has detected an IP address conflict. Another computer on this network has the same IP address as this computer.
If I disconnect the Ethernet cable from the back of the modem/router, I am able to go online from the desktop computer.
Being this is the first time that I have attempted expanding my wireless network, I have no earthly idea as to things. Any help will be appreciated.
Can you provide a solution as to get this corrected?
