Hi everyone

I need to extend my wifi to another part of the apartment, so I have
this set up:

modem --> PLC (Power Line Carrier)..........................PLC (Power
Line Carrier) --> Access point

Here is the hardware:
Modem: Came with my ISP's internet
PLC (My Power Line Carrier) : BeWan Powerline E85
Access Point: Netgear WG602v3

So basically, I am trying to send my internet over the powerline. The
internet is then picked up by an Access Point in another room, which I
plugged into a second PLC. The access point is connected to the PLC
via an ethernet cable.

I would like to be able to access the internet from the wifi on the
access point.

I have followed the instructions here, but it still dosen't work:http://kbserver.netgear.com/kb_web_files/n101409.asp
I set the access point to use DHCP (which is enabled on the modem).

I am unable to connect to the internet... I also get an error saying
that the IP address is invalid from windows.

Does anyone know what I should do?

Thanks

Zach

Hi Zach,

It seems that your modem is a Modem/Router with DHCP server enabled
and your Netgear Wireless Acees Point also configured with DHCP server
enabled .... if this is correct, you will have a confilict in IP
numbers assignment to your PC.

You can use static IP address at your PC side to isolate this DHCP
issue.
