TP-LINK TD-W8951ND and D-LINK Dir-505
Region : Brazil
Model : TD-W8951ND
Hardware Version : V5
Firmware Version : 5.0.0 Build 120522 Rel.23978
ISP : Velox
I'm having a problem getting internet connection using the DIR-505 wireless extender. The DIR-505 has 3 modes: Router/AP, Repeater and Hotspot. First I tried to setup it as a repeater, didn't work. Then I tried to setup it as a Hotspot. Didn't work also. In the DIR-505 status page there is the information Network Status: Disconnected (in repeater mode). In Hotspot mode, my gateway adress is 0.0.0.0 (both repeater and hotspot).
So, I started to look at TD-W8951ND's Wireless and LAN config page. In LAN config page I see that the device is located by the DHPC, but the IP is 0.0.0.0. The thing is, I started to look at the Wireless page and I decided to disable the WPA. Then the DIR-505 connected to the TD-W8951ND. I'm trying to figure it out why I can't setup it with WPA or WEP (doesn't matter if TKIP or AES also), since the DIR-505 obviously supports WPA (WPA and WPA2), I've run out of ideas. I don't understand why the devices sets their IP with 0.0.0.0 when I use passwords. I don't want to leave my wireless open.
