Additional info:
The problem with the “blocked” RPT not only occurs during the WLAN times stored in the child protection function, but also when the daily limit (here 1.5 hours) has been used up. Specifically this means:
As soon as our youngest exceeds the limit, the RPT blocks access to the Internet from all other devices. This is despite the fact that (as already mentioned) the connections and LEDs are OK.

…me again:smileyindifferent:
Can’t anyone tell me why I don’t see the RPT in the IB2 device list, but it is displayed in the WLAN diagnosis in the 5GHz network? The IP address is also correct, I can access the RPT via it.
In previous configurations with the IB2 and previously the Centro Grande, the RPT was visible. Ultimately called a “wifi bridge”, whoever came up with that name…
Thanks for your feedback.
Best regards

P.S. Can’t you attach PDF or JPG files here?
Hello WalterB
Thanks for the tip about the photo file… anyone who can read is clearly at an advantage:smileyvery-happy:
I have already reset the repeater several times, switched all devices off/on (disconnected from the mains, as it says in the first post) and then integrated them back into the home network one after the other. I had to do this because I wanted to describe the imaginative names of the various devices in a clearly recognizable way.
Thanks for your help and best regards

Here is the current device list of the IB2
Here is the RPT from an archived device list
Here is the current WLAN diagnosis in the IB2
I saw that you have a lot of WLAN kit in use, try turning them all off and then try again to connect the repeater to the Internet box.
I also assigned my repeater a fixed IP address outside the range of IP addresses of the Internet box, e.g. 192.168.1.199

“I saw that you have a lot of WLAN kit in use, try switching them all off and then try again to connect the repeater to the Internet box.”
I’ve done this several times, without success.
“… assign the repeater a fixed IP address outside the range of IP addresses of the Internet box, e.g. 192.168.1.199”
I wanted to try that, but how exactly do I do that if the RPT doesn’t appear anywhere? Do I then change the IP in the RPT itself? Attached is a screenshot of the RPT.

Does it make a difference whether I access the RPT via the browser/IP address or via a LAN cable via PC?
- When I’m in the RPT menu…
…do I change the IP to e.g. 199 and leave “Automatic” activated, or do I have to change it to “Static”?
- I don’t have to make any changes to the IB2? After changing the RPT IP, the IB2 has to be restarted, that’s clear to me. But how does the IB2 know that outside its rank ( up to 161) there is still a device connected to the network?
I’m starting to feel a bit confused….:smileyfrustrated:
Thank you for your patience…

What problem exactly, there were several different questions asked in this thread?
N.B. if I connect the WLAN kit directly to the IB2, e.g. as an access point then it is displayed with IP address etc.
However, it can take up to 5 minutes for it to become active.

Hello MCU
It’s been a long time, but I disposed of all the AirTies professionally and further Two new ones from Swisscom WLAN boxes purchased. Their range is significantly better than with the repeater stuff. Although all Swisscom employees assured me that it “should” work with the repeater. This is how you boost sales

I’ve had the new WiFi boxes myself for a long time, but I use the old WiFi kit for guests temporarily because it’s not yet possible to use the guest WiFi via the new WiFi boxes.
But it’s true that the new WLAN boxes have much better performance and practically no problems, and activation is also super fast.

I have recently had the IB3 repeater AirTies 4920, which I have been using for a long time in 5GHz without any problems. The problem is that the repeater apparently cannot handle the standard IPV6 802.11 ax. Switch off and set the channel to the older channels on 36-52. The frequency is then reduced to 80MHz instead of 160, but the 5GHz diode lights up a pleasant blue again on the WLAN adapter. There is a driver update that I couldn’t install. Otherwise you will have to switch to the WiFi box that supports the latest standards.
@Dograplie44 use a WLAN-Box or wait a while until the WLAN-BOX 2 comes.
