Trying to set up a repeater. Motorola SURFboard Gateway SBG6580 is downstairs. Want to use Buffalo Air Station as repeater upstairs. Air Station is plugged into my computer and Buffalo. Talked to Buffalo and they tried to connect the two but could not. Buffalo only has two green lights blinking. Doesn't see Motorola. I am a novice please help.

If it were me, i would return the airstation. then i would buy a linksys WRT54G. They are about 50 dollars. Then use that to set up your wireless network and you will find it quite easy.

Hello,
lets try to get one computer working at a time, so you have your arris modem, just unplug the modem for a moment, make sure the appropriate cable is going to the wallsocket and then take the other cable and make sure its connected at the appropriate LAN slot on the modem, and then take the other end to the downstairs computer, now you should have the downstairs wired to the modem and the modem to the well, plug the modem back in and also restart your downstairs computer.
Once both are started, you should be online, if you are not, hold down the windows key and press R, in the run menu that came up write CMD and hit OK. In the black window write IPCONFIG and hit enter, take down the IPaddress, subnetmask and the default gateway of that computer, and if you could post them here for me to review.
I can't post further instructions without knowing what windows the computer has, is it a windows XP machine, vista or windows 7?

Contact your Internet Service Provider. Since you will be connecting your modem to their network, you need to follow their setup instructions, to ensure that it functions correctly.
Your wireless is set up with a password. You need to get that password before you can connect any more devices. From a computer that can connect to the internet go to 192.168.0.1. Then type admin for the username and motorola for the password. I believe from there you click Wireless then click Primary Network. You should see your wireless network name and password from there. I'm getting this from the modems manual here: http://www.midcocomm.com/_files/files/SBG6580.pdf
