Reference Manual for the NETGEAR WG102 ProSafe 802.11g Wireless Access Point
Advanced Configuration 5-7
October 2004
– Configure the WG102 (AP3) in Repeater mode with the Remote MAC Address of AP2.
2. Verify the following parameters for all access points:
• Verify that the LAN network configuration the WG102 Access Points are configured to
operate in the same LAN network address range as the LAN devices
• All APs must be on the same LAN. That is, all the APs LAN IP address must be in the
same network.
• If using DHCP, all WG102 Access Points should be set to “Obtain an IP address
automatically (DHCP Client)” in the IP Address Source portion of the Basic IP Settings
menu.
• All WG102 Access Points use the same SSID, Channel, authentication mode, if any, and
encryption in use.
3. Verify connectivity across the LANs.
• A computer on any LAN segment should be able to connect to the Internet or share files
and printers with any other PCs or servers connected to any of the three WLAN segments.
Note: You can extend this repeating by adding up to 2 additional WG102s configured in repeater
mode. However, since Repeater configurations communicate in half-duplex mode, the bandwidth
decreases as you add Repeaters to the network. Also, you can extend the range of the wireless
network with NETGEAR wireless antenna accessories.
