I have successfully connected a wre54g range expander to my secure network. The signal stregnth is greater on my laptop but the browser speed is much slower. Any ideas?
Also confirm that the laptop appears of the client table for the wre54g. The wre54g could broadcast the ssid, but not accept traffic. Hence the connection is still being carried elsewhere in the network.
The last time I came across this problem was when a Linksys range extender was running with a different make of wireless transmitter and the delays were caused by the security settings. This was confirmed by turning off wireless security for a short while to test the theory. The fix - get a Linksys wireless router and follow the setup instructions to the letter.
