Reference Manual for the NETGEAR 54 Mbps Wireless Access Point WG602v3 1. Configure the Operating Mode of the WG602v3 Access Points. • Configure AP1 on LAN Segment 1 in Repeater mode with the Remote MAC Address of the 'downstream' AP (AP2). • Configure AP2 in Repeater mode with the MAC addresses of the 'upstream' AP (AP1) and the MAC address of the 'downstream' AP (AP3). • Configure AP3 in Repeater mode with the Remote MAC Address of the 'upstream' AP (AP2). 2. Verify the following parameters for all access points: • Verify that the LAN network configuration the WG602v3 Access Points are configured to operate in the same LAN network address range as the LAN devices • All APs must be on the same LAN. That is, all the APs LAN IP address must be in the same network. • If using DHCP, all WG602v3 Access Points should be set to "Obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP Client)" in the IP Address Source portion of the Basic IP Settings menu. • All WG602v3 Access Points use the same SSID, Channel, authentication mode, if any, and encryption in use. 3. Verify connectivity across the LANs. A computer on any LAN segment should be able to connect to the Internet or share files and printers with any other PCs or servers connected to any of the three WLAN segments. Note: You can extend this repeating by adding up to 2 additional WG602v3s configured in repeater mode. However, since Repeater configurations communicate in half-duplex mode, the bandwidth decreases as you add Repeaters to the network. Also, you can extend the range of the wireless network with NETGEAR wireless antenna accessories. Advanced Configuration 5-7 202-10060-02, February 2005
