    by Mayooran on November 11, 2005

    Pros: Crazy signal .. even works with 802.11b

    Cons: Basically nuthing ...

    Summary: Seriously man.. i don?t y ppl gave stupid reviews.. The setup took me 5 mins trust me.. If u want to setup the connection in 5 mins follow the following steps and then rate this product

    A: Make sure ur router is configured with modem and its working properly
    B: Make sure u don?t connected to the internet
    C: On ur pc navigate to Control panel -> Network connection and right click on the ethernet adapter (it will say "disconnected" but don?t worry) -> properties
    D: Double click on TCP/IP properties and choose "use the following IP address? enter the following info

    IP Address: 192.168.0.29
    Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
    Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1

    Also choose "user the following DNS server addresses"
    Preferred DNS Server: 192.168.0.1

    Click OK.

    E. Now plug the repeater and connect the RJ45 Cable between Repeater and Ethernet Card on ur pc

    F. Now open internet explorer and type http://192.168.0.30 and follow the instructions on the quick install guide.

    G. Once the setup is completed unplug the Ethernet cable and open the site survey of ur wireless card.

    H. You will see a connection with a signal strength of 80 ? 90. Connect to that and ur good to go?

    With respect, the advice to 'fix' an IP address may lead to IP conflicts with other machines on the network, Suggest following the Wizard with one pc plugged into the extender. Then unplug and test a wireless pc to see if it goes thru the extender. Do this by entering RUN then command to bring up the DOS dialog box. Then enter 'ping 192,168,0.10' and enter. Should get back a few lines of code from the extender. If so , you are in business.
