2830n as a switch/repeater?? was created by fasteddy13
Hi all..

Have a 2830n (v1) and live on a site with several wifi networks.. Have spent many an hour trying to get this router to use one of these wifi networks as a source, but I think I am getting into a muddle on how to set this up, the manual is plain confusing and has no examples to follow. Tried to go through the odd guide on the net but cant seem to get this setup to work..

local wifi network -> 2830n -> my PC.. Have got the wifi network detected on the 2830n, set it as a bridge, can connect to the 2830n ssid, but no internet connection. I think my problem lies with setting the password for the local wifi network, but am in such a muddle over this that it could be something equally simple I am missing..

Anyone here that can guide me through, what should be, a simple setup?
