Can't connect to internet via access point
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TL-WA830RE
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
ISP : Zen
I'm trying to set up my WA830RE in access point mode. It is connected to a Netgear D834G adsl modem/router via ethernet. The Netgear has DHCP enabled with an IP address of 192.168.150.1, and I have disabled the DHCP server on the AP, and set the AP to DynamicIP.
The AP is connecting to the Netgear, and receiving an IP address of 192.168.150.6.
I have set the SSID of both router and AP to PJNet, with the same WPA passphrase.
I can connect to the internet via devices that are connected directly to the Netgear router, and I can connect to the wireless network of the AP, but devices which are connected to the AP wifi network are not able to access the internet.
Would I need to enable WDS on the Netgear, or are there any other settings I need to check/change? I assumed not, as it was connected to the AP via ethernet. (The distance is too great to run the AP in range extender mode).
Thanks,
Brad
