Setting Up a Bridge Between your Wireless Router and a
Secondary Access Point
Bridging your Belkin Router to a secondary Access Point requires that
you access the Router’s Advanced Setup Utility and enter the MAC
address of the Access Point in the appropriate area. There are also a
few other requirements. PLEASE BE SURE TO FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW,
CAREFULLY.
1. Set your Access Point to the same channel as the Router. By
default, the Router and Access Point channels are set to channel
11 at the factory. If you have never changed the channel, you
don’t need to do anything (for more information on changing
channels, see page 47 of this manual).
2. Find the Access Point’s MAC address on the bottom of the
Access Point. There are two MAC addresses on the bottom label.
You will need the MAC address named “WLAN MAC Address”.
The MAC address starts with 0030BD and is followed by six other
numbers or letters (i.e. 0030BD-XXXXXX). Write the MAC address
below. Go to the next step.
3. Place your secondary Access Point within range of your Wireless
Router and near the area where you want to extend the range
or add the network segment. Typically, indoor range should be
between 100 and 200 feet.
4. Connect power to your Access Point. Make sure the Access Point
is on and proceed to the next step.
