Hi,

I've troubles setting up Edimax EW-7206APg as a Universal Repeater.
I've read few manuals, but they are unclear on certain points.
I've managed the repeater to get to a state when it's in a "connected" state.
I've set the same WPA passphrase as the router has because I haven't seen any other place to set it at.

These are my settings:

System
Uptime   0day:1h:33m:11s
Hardware Version     Rev. A
Runtime Code Version     1.32
Wireless Configuration
Mode     Universal Repeater
ESSID    edimax
Channel Number   6
Security     WPA-shared key
BSSID    00:c0:9f:40:bd:38
Associated Clients   0
Wireless Repeater Interface Configuration
ESSID    Dusan
Security     WPA
BSSID    00:4f:62:23:8f:7e
State    Connected
LAN Configuration
IP Address   192.168.0.10
Subnet Mask      255.255.255.0
Default Gateway      192.168.0.1
MAC Address      00:c0:9f:40:bd:37

This is ipconfig /all:

    Prípona DNS podle pripojení . . . : riomail.cz
    Popis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection
    Fyzická Adresa. . . . . . . . . . : 00-0E-35-3D-77-68
    Protokol DHCP povolen . . . . . . : Ano
    Automatická konfigurace povolena  : Ano
    Adresa IP . . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.5
    Maska podsíte . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
    Výchozí brána . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1
    Server DHCP . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1
    Servery DNS . . . . . . . . . . . : 94.74.192.252
                                        94.74.192.244

I can ping the repeater, I can ping the root AP, but not a DNS server or any other IP beyond the root AP.

Anyone has an idea what's wrong?

Thanks, Ondra
