Can this router be used as repeater/bridge?

Sorry, I not that computer literate. I also just replaced the old one that stopped working.

I never tried this, my only reason for buying this is to replace an existing router.

Only with a wired connection, which actually makes it an AP rather than a bridge or repeater. It doesn't support that function natively. Also, the third-party firmware dd-wrt that would allow that function does not support this router. There may be another third party firmware that could allow it to work the way you want, but you're looking at some work getting it done. You would need good knowledge of networking most likely. If you require that feature then you would be better off looking into something that already has it built in, or that is supported by dd-wrt firmware.

No - I use it internally only. But honestly, buy a Cisco repeater. This is just too challenging to configure for a novice user.

I set two of these up as repeaters to extend the WiFi signal in our home. I used a Macbook Pro to configure them and then later, to access the network through them. I had no problems.

Yes, depending on your configuration, you may have to configure this DSL as a bridge and use your wireless router as a router or leave the DSL modem as a router and configure your wireless router as a WIFI access point. you have flexibility with two configuration choices.

You can use it as a repeater if it is connected to a computer that already has internet access. Here is a tutorial i found for setting it up on a windows machine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gg0hsWN7uAOne caveat to doing it this way is that it will only be transmitting a signal if the computer is on. Another option is if you have an old wireless router lying around, that can also be used as a repeater. Hope this helps!

Unfortunately, this is High Power Router not an extender. If you were looking for an extender, you may want to consider the SR10000.

No, it is a repeater. They are made to be away from the router to repeat the signal further.

After reading the documentation, I think it can be, but I was not able to do it successfully. That is the original intent that I had for this router, but after playing around for a while, I gave up and just used it as a normal wireless router.

If you're familiar with Belkin entry level routers its about the same. I live in a two story house with solid concrete walls. The router is downstairs and I get good signal on the side of the upper floor above the router. On the other side of the upper floor I have to use a repeater.

I think so, it is a router(repeater) with hdd attached, what normal router can do, this device should be able to do as well.

I would suggest a similar setup like the one I have.It's doing what you want.There is an option for the repeater to either use the incoming signal for WiFi or Ethernet.In my situation I went with Ethernet but you can set WiFi.See my review. http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R1ZH7JFVDQHJWU/ref=cm_cr_pr_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN;=B00HQ883QW

Not true. All it does is listen for 802.11g a signals and rebroadcasts it. However, a better option would be to buy a Linksys WRT54GL and install the DD-WRT firmware on it. You can then configure it to operate in bridge, repeater, or router mode. See http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Repeater_Bridge. The result will cost less, but do more. :-)

Well, if you have a Internet-cable-modem-cable-router-cable-WAP121 ))wifi))) kind of config, and place this AP on a different room with a long ethernet cable for example, YES it will work, you will have 2 wifi signals, one from your router and one from your WAP121. If you want to use it as a repeater, yes it can be used as a wifi repeater on a config like: Internet-cable-modem-cable-router))wifi))WAP121))morewifi))) but the performance is never as good as having it straight to a cable, I would recomend having 2 Wifi signals and use the best one on the area were you are at that time. This AP is exelent, it never "locks" or "freezes" and it has a VERY GOOD range- Hope this help :)

In theory it could work, but I wouldn't mess around with trying. If you're trying to create a wireless link as a bridge, buy two and set it up that way. It's simple to do and works. I've never been very successful getting stable bridges built using cross-vendor products.

Check the manual and Cisco user community. The router has VLAN, DMZ and static routing configurations that should allow you to split out the device traffic through a proxy. I have never done this, so maybe someone else has direct experience.

You can use it as a client or access point. It can be set as a repeater via was. But that will only work with the m5 line of ubiquity equipment.

For whatever reason I was unable to get this box to connect to my netgear wndr3400 as a bridge - it has performed okay for me as a repeater though
