Hi, I have a WA701ND that I bought so I could access the internet with my iphone 3g since I'm out of reach of the wireless range of my home's router. I've setting it up in access mode, and while I seem to be able to connect to the router with my phone, I can't connect to the internet with it. When I'm in range of my home router my phone works fine. The other problem is that when the tp link is on and plugged into my computer I seem to be unable to connect to the internet in some ways a lot of the time but still able to connect in other ways, like it's interfering with my wired network somehow.

Can somebody help me with either of these things?

I've setting it up in access mode,
Is it in access point mode or repeater mode indeed?
How did you set it up?
Try to find the correct instruction here and check your configuration.

It's definitely in access point mode, I set it up on the AP's page via a browser (192.168.0.254) doing the quick set up.
I selected:
Access Point mode
Wireless Security Mode: Most Secure(WPA/WPA2-PSK)
DHCP Server Disabled
IP Address: 192.168.0.254
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Change the login account: No
That seems to be how the manual says to do it.
Just having it on and connected to my pc with an ethernet cable is causing me to be unable to connect to the internet in most ways however.

In access point mode, you have to connect WA701ND and main router by a network cable. To access internet by WA701ND, you can only use wireless connection as there is only on Ethernet port on WA701ND.
So I'm confused what you are trying to do. How can you connect PC with an ethernet cable to WA701ND and access internet?

I thought I'd be able to route internet through my pc I guess I need to do something different.
