we have the equipment for a few days in operation, but it will probably have to go back now.
To Setup: This is really very simple. Insert repeater, WLAN-looking, connect to the new Wi-Fi and the URL [...] call. Throw look at the manual for user name and password and the rest should be explained by itself. Who has his router configuration according to strictly set (keyword MAC address filter) should remember - but if you do not do that is certainly not the fault of the device.
But makes us worry a different problem: The Extender covers here a rarely used part of the building from.
So it happens that always take a few hours until a client connects to the Extender. This is exactly what the device but apparently not from. For whenever the unit was a few hours inactive, no client can connect more with the Extender. The network is displayed and everything fits, but each connection attempt is rejected. Once you disconnecting and re-plugging everything works wonderfully again without any other settings have to be changed.
The problem is also described before the forum on the manufacturing side (we are not alone), but no response so far from NETGEAR.
We tested this with the firmware 1.0.0.20 and 1.0.0.22 (which was pre-installed). A change from dynamic to static IP Extender brought no change.
It is of course not an option the unit on permanently and unplug. Schade and annoying because otherwise the device makes use of the performance very good job.
Therefore, there are also 2 star.
