Hello there

Because the range of my wl500g is too small my mother bought me a MAXg router for Christmas. The MAXg router has just very few functions.
I've got the following situation:
WL500g connected to internet, ...
I want to expand the wl500g's range with the MAXg router.
The MAXg and WL500g can just connect through WirelessLAN

I have tried it for hours now, what have I set up wrong??

SSIDs should be the same, IP addresses different, WDS should be enabled on both routers and their addresses should filled to the WDS MAC lists.

Thank you very much for your very fast answer, Oleg.

It still works just half:
when I connect to the wl-500g I can open the config-site of the MAXg router and the config site of the wl500g. very good:)
but I can't connect to MAXg router any more. :confused: :mad:

I've set it up 3 times to check what I've spelled the MAC-Addresse correct, but it never worked. I've no idea why....:confused:

PS: The MAXg router seems also to run Linux, even with the same bootloader, but I don't know how to communicate with it (telnet, ssh, ... doesn't work)
