Set Up the Base Station

The wireless repeating function works only in hub and spoke mode. The units cannot be

daisy-chained. You have to know the wireless settings for both units. You have to know the

MAC address of the remote unit. First, set up the base station, and then set up the repeater.

¾ To set up the base station:

1. Set up both units with exactly the same wireless settings (SSID, mode, channel, and

security). Note that the wireless security option has to be set to None or WEP.

2. Select ADVANCED > Advanced > Wireless Repeating Function to display the Wireless

Repeating Function screen.

3. In the Wireless Repeating Function screen (depending on the frequency you want to use),

select the Enable Wireless Repeating Function check box and select the Wireless Base

Station radio button.

4. Enter the MAC address for one or more repeater units.

5. Click Apply to save your changes.

Set Up a Repeater Unit

Use a wired Ethernet connection to set up the repeater unit to avoid conflicts with the

wireless connection to the base station.
