I have a router in the second floor of my house , recently I bought a DLINK DAP-1360 Repeater and put it the first floor. I have one computer without wireless network adapter so I've decided to connect the repeater to this computer using the ethernet cable I got with it. I open my computer's browser as said in the manual (http://dlinkap) and used the "setup wizard" to configure the repeater. When I'm looking for wireless networks with my laptop (another computer) I can see my "router network" (named "Ofir") and my "repeater network" (named "Ofir_EXT") , which is good. However ,It seems that the computer which connected to the repeater doesn't recognize the network. I can still access "http://dlinkap" but not internet. When I'm opening the "network center" , It says "Unrecognized network" , when I'm disconnecting the ethernet cable It says "unavailable networks". Some details about the repeater: Dlink , DAP-1360 Hardware version B1 Firmware version 2.12 The computer which is connected to the repeated (with cable): Windows 7 Home premium , SP1 Has a Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller network adapter Thanks in advanced, Ofir Baruch.
Hey, you're almost there. The connection between the no-wireless PC over ethernet to the DAP-1360 Repeater is fine. The reason it can't connect to your LAN or the internet, however, is that the repeater isn't actually repeating your Ofir network, it is instead creating it's own, completely isolated wireless network (Ofir_EXT).
The D-Link setup and documentation is confusing, and doesn't have proper instructions for the repeater setup.
Rerun the setup wizard, setup as a repeater, then select manual configuration method.
Now, enter the wireless network name of your the network you want to extend (in this case, Ofir). Then enter the same security and password etc. for Ofir in the following fields, just like you were connecting to Ofir from a smartphone or laptop.
Once that is finished, you should be up and running. If things worked, you should NOT see any new wireless network. There should be Ofir and just Ofir. Wireless repeaters work invisibly, you'll still connect to the same network like you always did, but now it will have much improved range thanks to the DAP-1360. The computer entherneted to it should be networked on the wireless LAN and have internet access after this as well.
Good luck, I hope my instructions were clear. Wifi networking is easy, it's understanding all the manufacturers less-than-intuitive software that makes it hard.
