Belkin N+ down (both of them) Buffalo HP-G54 down and replaced
98% active now. Getting late but wanted to share what's going on so far. I was able to test the WDS function. I must say that works right out of the box. Also tested AP/Repeater again did a site survey and it connected to the main AP Router not problem. I can't use the main AP as that will be 802.11g but I did notice that even though the main is 802.11g and the link AP is 802.11n that if left that way any system wireless would see 802.11gn appear. for Radio Type: Now getting to work as AP through a wired connection was tricky.
I did notice along the way to that road that the wireless signal strength wasn't the great, but soon cleared that up and the 802.11n AP only works with all bars showing. So this is my plan 802.11g on the master to control all wireless g devices mostly netbook and business VPN laptop plus my wireless all-in-one plus fax (that was tough to connect to this setup. Found out the issue. I see that the master AP is dropping the signal again down to 3 out of 5. Where the link AP is strong at 5 out of 5. I think I'll have to reposition the main AP again to correct that issue with the signal.
Tested out the WPS on the all-in-one that did read it but the all-in-one just couldn't connect using it's software. Found an issue in the router configuration and fix it. Now it connects to the all-in-one wireless.
As for wired gig to gig (LAN to LAN) I do a lot of remote control which is easier then to get up and go to the systems. But measuring the performance of the connection from PCI-E to PCI-E dual slightly faster. I'll have to do some more testing and transferring 300MB to 3GB files over the network.
Two print servers need to be added, so hopefully that will go smoothly.
I see my master AP now showing 4 out of 5. So there must be something causing that interface or it just can't reach this part of the house. I'll check in the morning.
