Dap 1360 Dear Fixya, I've set up my D-Link Dap-1360 as a repeater of a router wifi Nilox. It seemed to work well, until I've discovered that, inexplicably, after half a day or one day, the Dap-1360 doesn't repeat the signal any longer. Besides, if I try to reach the website of the repeater (dlinkap or 192.168.0.50), I am not able to do it. So I have to unplug and plug back the Dap-1360 in order to have it work again. How can I fix this situation? Also another question: how far do I have to put the Dap-1360 from the router wifi Nilox? I mean, when the Dap-1360 detects the possible networks to link to, it gives percentages for every network, based on the strength of the signal coming from the router wifi. Which is, according to you, the most befitting percentage?

SOURCE: Can't configure the network with ethernet cable

Hey, you're almost there. The connection between the no-wireless PC over ethernet to the DAP-1360 Repeater is fine. The reason it can't connect to your LAN or the internet, however, is that the repeater isn't actually repeating your Ofir network, it is instead creating it's own, completely isolated wireless network (Ofir_EXT).


The D-Link setup and documentation is confusing, and doesn't have proper instructions for the repeater setup.


Rerun the setup wizard, setup as a repeater, then select manual configuration method.


Now, enter the wireless network name of your the network you want to extend (in this case, Ofir). Then enter the same security and password etc. for Ofir in the following fields, just like you were connecting to Ofir from a smartphone or laptop.
Once that is finished, you should be up and running. If things worked, you should NOT see any new wireless network. There should be Ofir and just Ofir. Wireless repeaters work invisibly, you'll still connect to the same network like you always did, but now it will have much improved range thanks to the DAP-1360. The computer entherneted to it should be networked on the wireless LAN and have internet access after this as well.



Good luck, I hope my instructions were clear. Wifi networking is easy, it's understanding all the manufacturers less-than-intuitive software that makes it hard.

SOURCE: Router can't detect DAP 1360 when installed about 90 meters away. UTP connectors tested okay.

have you tried turning on and off the router and AP? it would scan again...it looks like you just need to recheck connections and powers...

DAP-1360 won't respond or reset.

Click the Windows 7 "Start" button.
Type 'CMD' into the search-box, and press ENTER.
Type 'IPCONFIG /ALL' and press ENTER.
Look for the IP-address of the "gateway" (or "DHCP-server").
Type that IP-address into your web-browser.

I have a new DAP-1360 that I want to set up as a repeater. The wizard to get it on my wi-fi network is fast and easy, I join thru site survey and it appears all is good. Then my wireless network stops...

talk to Dlink directly. (no main router stated, model?)
it is just a RANGE extender,
7 different modes
Access Point,
Wireless Client,
Bridge, Bridge with AP, Repeater, WISP Client Router or WISP Repeater
Compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g Devices(no main told) .
repeater mode (1 of 7) is covered in the manual
and wirlessly bridges to the main AP, and extends the range of the wifi to the new zone,(goal?)
( do this here but use Ethernet from main to new AP) vastly better.
page 26 in your manual covers setup for Repeater mode.
did you do that?
step one is the SSID, use a new name here, not same as other AP or other wireless nodes, ok?
step 2, select repeater
I never use WPS so I skip this (its insecure)
pick manual
page 29 find our main router, SSID name, or survey it.
this is very important to marry the new AP to the old router SSID.
my main would be WPA2, id not use any others (security)
then type in the mains , Password, 8 to 32 chars.
its done.

update the firmware in both routers first? be wise that.
I never do this ,all it does is slow down wifi in 2nd zone.
for sure walls present ! in the line of site paths.
I bridge them with ethernet (wired) now both zone go full speed.
