LinkSys BEFW11S4 and D-Link DWL-800AP+

[Guest]

Has anyone used the Linksys BEFW11S4 and the D-Link DWL-800AP+ with success?

My Linksys has been in use for over a year now but I have a need now to
access the InterNet from a location near my home.

I need to extend the range of my Linksys AP and wondered if all I need is
the DWL-800 running in REPEATER mode?.......ie receive the repeated signal
on a PC fitted with a PCI card at the location near my home. I can fit
extenal antennas if required and install the repeater high in the roofspace.

Hope I made my request for help/information clear.


Thanks Victor.

I've tried the 900+ with the Linksys BEFW11S4 in repeater mode without
success.
