[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 954442, member: 323322"] If you start from scratch (or reset the device) and use WPS, it nabs the base SSID, sets itself to the same Channel and adopts the same security method, including the key - all without the need to connect up by Ethernet. ie True plug and play But, of course, you can get into it manually, via a Browser and Ethernet cable (WiFi works if you access it after a Reset). Therein are Windows 8 style menus where you can configure it however you wish, either as a Repeater or as an Access Point. I did actually later amend the SSID so I could use the excellent WiFi Analyser Andriod App. and check around the house what the comparative signal levels were from Router and Repeater so I could easily manually change Network if I wished (Of course, some newer fangled "Devices" will change seamlessly on their tod).
