How would I configure this router to work with a dwl-2100ap in repeater mode? I have set the DIR-625 to 802.11g only mode but when I connect the dwl-2100 I can't get internet.
What you need to do is configure the dwl-2100AP. You need to login into the repeater's configuration page and go to Home tab, click on wireless on the left. Select AP Repeater under Mode. A new screen will show up. Click on the scan button to see if your router's signal is being picked up in the box. Just select the signal if you see it in the box and put in your security info if you have one.

Try to configure your new router and you have to reconfigure the Range extender to tally with the new router. The IP Address that the range extender should have should depend on the DHCP server of your router that provides the IP Address.
I have had similar problems with DWL-2100 and (much less often) with DWL-3200. I have no solution, but a workaround: changing the authentication mode. For example, if the units are using WPA-Personal, I change it (on both) to WPA2-Personal or WPA-Auto-Personal. It doesn't seem to matter which mode is used, it's just the fact of changing it that helps (eventually). You may have to go through the process more than once. Also, realize that although the web interface comes up 30 seconds or so after a reboot, it may take another 30-60 seconds before a link is established, so don't give up too soon while trying these changes.
To use the DWL-2100AP as an access point (repeater), You have to set it up on the repeater mode and type in the MAC address of the router. The best way to do this is to run the AP manager from the cd.

Are you using the correct cable type. If it is a CAT5 type cable it could be you are using a patch cable rather than a straight through type or vise versa.
