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:meh: 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:winking:

    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.
