Can i use my DIR-655 as a wireless repeater? - D-Link Xtreme N DIR-655 Wireless Router

SOURCE: D-Link DIR-655 as Wireless Extender

you need to run "cat. 5-e" cable from the first router to the other.
if this is not an option, purchase a range extender box, which communicates between the two routers.

unfortunatly it is my understandingthat blackberrys require an ssid to connect as they are not as advanced as a laptop or wireless adapter on a pc...sorry

don't give the password in the wireless then you get it or firewall on then also not get it pls disable in the pc and the router also

The part below is all you need to look at, the rest is Ethernet which is your wired connection, ethernet card.

Here is what are causing your problems from what you gave me and basically your computer is not communicating with the router:

1)I don't see any IP address for your laptop so you can't get on the internet if you don't have an IP address, also, I don't see any gateway address. The gateway address is your router address, and that address is given to the router automatically from your Internet Service Provider.

So if your computer cannot see the gateway address then the gateway address (router) cannot give you an IP address to get on the Internet.
Your Wireless card looks ok, that is the physical address and if you were able to do the loopback then its working.

So on your laptop I would begin from the beginning. Go into network connections and delete the DLink connection if it is there. Then Start>control panel>Network connections>click wireless network connection>click change settings of the connection on the left window>click wireless network tab>make sure checkmark"use windows to configure my wireless network settings>click add a new network>TYPE IN THE SSID FOR THE NETWORK>ENTER WEP/WPA KEY>CLICK OK, then close and you should be connected.

You said other computers are able to access the internet thru the DLINK so it all points to your laptop not being configured correctly.

HOWEVER :)...I see alot of "Media disconnected in your list. Make sure all of the lights are working on the front of the router, if not check the cabling or call the ISP sometimes the problem is on their end. Hope this helps, keep me updated.

You can set up your router manually, without the
CD.
Make sure that your computer is able to go online
directly through the modem.
If your computer is able to go online through the
modem, that means the modem is working fine.
You will need to connect the computer to the
router and the modem to the router.
open the set up page of the router and change the
settings of the router according to the ISP.
