![]() ![]() Client Mode - Join two wired networks by two Wireless routers (unbridged).All computers can see one another in Windows Network. Client Bridged - Join two wired networks by two Wireless routers building a bridge.The secondary router must have dd-wrt installed the primary router does not need to have dd-wrt. Universal Wireless Repeater - Uses a program/script called AutoAP to keep a connection to the nearest/best host AP.Ĭlient / Client Bridge - Connect two wired networks using a WiFi link (WIRELESS connection between two routers).Computers connected to one router can not see computers connected to other routers in Windows Network. Repeater - A wireless repeater with DHCP & NAT enabled, clients on different subnet from host AP (primary router).That is, all computers can see one another in Windows Network. Repeater Bridge - A wireless repeater with DHCP & NAT disabled, clients on same subnet as host AP (primary router).The secondary router must have dd-wrt installed the primary does not need dd-wrt. Repeater / Repeater Bridge - Extend the Wireless access area using a second router WIRELESSLY connected to the primary. Switch - Similar config as WAP, but radio disabled (accepts only WIRED connections).Wireless Access Point - Extend Wi-Fi & LAN (Requires physical(just WIRED) ethernet connection between routers).This works with all devices with LAN ports, and does not require dd-wrt to be installed. All computers will be on the same network segment, and will be able to see one another in Windows Network. In the following, most contents are CITED directly from Linking Routers and its extended webpages.Īccess Point / Switch - Extend the Wireless access area using more routers, with WIRED connections between routers, or turn a WIRED port on an existing network into a Wireless Access Point. For routers with dd-wrt firmware, there are mulitple ways to connect routers, please refer to. The problem that we are going to deal with is how to connect multiple routers, so that the Internet range can be expanded. As a lazy man, I’m NOT going to flash anything but just use a router coming with an existing DD-WRT firmware, namely, DD-WRT SL-R7202. In one word, find some DD-WRT supported router, and have it successfully flashed FIRST. ![]() You can also find some either continued or discontinued such products on the market, such as Gearbest. In my case, I got a lot of such routers in hand and am selling them on Craigslist (if anybody is interested in it, please let me know). To check if your router is supported by DD-WRT, you need to check this page. Two widely used open source router firmware have been published online for quite a bit of time: DD-WRT, OpenWRT In fact, each of these two are OK for router firmware flashing. PART A: Flash A Supported Router with DD-WRT Firmwareīefore we start to tackle the problem, the open source firmware DD-WRT is strongly recommended to flash your router. Anyway, this blog is going to heavily cite the contents on this page. This reminds me of my FIRST startup Misc Vision that used to resell Foscam home security IP cameras. Hi, today, I’m going to revisit a very old topic, Setup Repeater Bridge Using A dd-wrt Router. ![]() 3) PC Wirelessly Connecting to Router 1 - 2.4G 2) PC Wirelessly Connecting to Router 1 - 5G 1) PC Wired Connecting to DD-WRT (Router 2) PART D: Wireless Repeater Bridge (Same Subset) Reset to Factory Defaults on DD-WRT Router (The 2nd Router) ![]() PART A: Flash A Supported Router with DD-WRT Firmware ![]()
