My friend has a linksys router. (Not sure on the model). But I am trying to set up a WRE54G-RM range extender. I am able to go the setup, but then when I get to the point where I have to change some of the settings so it can connect to the network, I keep getting the following error: WRE54G cannot associate with this AP in repeater mode. After the error message, I go through the setup process all over again. How do I get past this??

To be honest, I am not sure about the questions you asked. The next time that I at their place, I will be sure to look. Thanx! Oh, I am connecting to the correct network, cause when I set it up, I changed the network name.

Thanx again!!

It sounds like you know what you're doing and I have every confidence that you'll get it to work.

I am trying to access the router config page. But when I type in 192.168.1.1, it doesn't load the page at all. How can I access this page so I can check on the config of the router???????

If you are using Windows, start a CMD (command prompt window) and type in:


ipconfig /all


From the output, you will see an entry for "Default Gateway". The associated IP address will be the IP address that you need to use to connect to the router's web config page.

The default gateway is still 192.168.1.1. But I still cannot access the router config page. Do I need to reset the router and re-config the router?? The default gateway is still 192.168.1.1. But I still cannot access the router config page. Do I need to reset the router and re-config the router??

Yeah, it kind of sounds like the router has hung and needs a restart or possibly a reset. Yeah, it kind of sounds like the router has hung and needs a restart or possibly a reset.

So, I should be able to just unplug it for a little bit then plug it back in and hopefully it will work, right?? If that doesn't work, do a complete reset?
