Verizon 4G LTE Router MBR1515LVW
Wi-Fi Repeating Function
The following restrictions apply when you are using the Wi-Fi repeating function:
• The Wi-Fi security options WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (AES), and WPA-PSK (TKIP) +
WPA2-PSK (AES) are not available when you enable the Wi-Fi repeating function. See
Configure WEP on page 35
.
• The Wi-Fi repeating function cannot be used with Auto Channel. See Manually Configure
Y
our Wireless Settings on p
age 32.
 To configure the Wi-Fi repeating function:
1. Log in to the router as described in Log In to
Your Router on page 17.
2. From the main menu, select Advanced >
Wi-Fi Repeating Function.
3. To use either bridge mode or repeater mode, select En
able Wi-Fi Repeating Function.
4. Select the mode you want for your environment:
• Wi-Fi Repeater. In
this mode, the MBR1515LVW communicates only with another
Base Station–mode wireless station. You must enter the MAC address (physical
address) of the other Base Station–mode wireless station in the field provided. WEP /
WPA-PSK [TKIP] can (and should) be used to protect this communication.
• Wi-Fi Base Station. Sele
ct this option only if this MBR1515LVW is the master for a
group of Repeater-mode wireless stations. The other Repeater-mode wireless
stations must be set to Wi-Fi Repeater-mode, using this MBR1515LVW’s MAC
address. They then send all traffic to this master, rather than communicating directly
with each other. WEP can (and should) be used to protect this traffic. If this option is
selected, you must enter the MAC addresses of the other access points in the fields
provided.
