can't do WDS repeater unless the serving WiFi device is configured cooperatively. Not sure the OP is using an authorized WiFi connection; says Free, but. |

If you want to use a router as a repeater you would have to use a third party firmware like Tomato. What router are you using, and if you can go more into detail into your setup. |

| I am pretty sure this is simple...but I have not figured it out. I have access to free wifi at my house, however the signal is only good in one corner of my home,which luckily is exactly where i would have wanted to put my HTPC anyway. So what I would like to be able to do is share the wireless connection that my HTPC has with a wireless router that i already own, basically using my wireless router as a signal repeater. Can someone help me do this?
I hooked it all up, and bridged the wireless and LAN connections, but i was not sure what else to do. any help would be great, thanks guys |
