Help! German needs informations about the router "Thomson TG782i"

[robertknezovic]

Dear community,

unfortunately my Croatian is not good and that's why I write in English.

I have the following issue: My dad has in his house in Brela the router "TG782i" from Thomson. Because there are some areas with not sufficient receiving, we want to install a repeater. It was bought the device "N.Power" from AirLive.
I think I have to configurate the WDS settings. But in the configuration menue of the TG782i I havn't find informations I have to know, e.g. network mode, frequency channel, encrypt type.
Another point is the MAC address of the TG782i: The address printed under the device distinguishes from the address I can see in the N.Power site survey: The last digit is different to 1. I'm confused...


I hope there is someone who can help me

it is normal that MAC address is different, LAN interface has for example: AA:BB:CC:11:22:33 address, WAN interface has another AA:BB:CC:11:22:33, Wireless interface another MAC AA:BB:CC:11:22:35

it is usually WAN MAC +1 = LAN MAC +1 = Wireless MAC

I am not sure if repeater will give you signal that is good enough, maybe it is better to go for Powerline + WLAN adapter

Use Google translate Oreškoviću:
Mogao si dobiti i neki bolji uređaj od TG782i, tipa Speedport.
No, ako ne ide ovo što si probao, spoji se na "N.power" i poveži na wifi mrežu t-comovog routera i kreiraj duplikat ili drugu mrežu.

Also hier ist die situation

That AirLive is not the best solution but you can try,
connect pc / lap by the wire (Lan) to it,
select a WDS Settings (repeater) mode, once confirm, the AP will reboot to its new mode,
in Wireless > Change Regulatory Domain to ETSI (Europe) or South America (14ch),
in LAN Interface Setup change:
IP=192.168.1.254 (AirLive will be on this ip address after applay / reboot)
Subnet=255.255.255.0
Gateway=192.168.1.1 (ip address of TG782)
DHCP Type=Disabled

reopen web config after applay / reboot on new ip adress,
find WDS Repeater settings, select WDS Mode,
under AP1 EncrypType select AES or TKIP,
Encryp Key is pass for WiFi on TG782,
MAC Address is MAC of WiFi interface on TG782,
use Site Survey function to see / select WiFi from TG782,
applay / reboot and it should start operating.

The problem can be what a classic WDS requires that the function is switch on (activ) on both devices.
On the other hand WDS functionality is thrown out for safety reasons.

If you fail, replacing AirLive with a device that has a Universal Repeter, ex TL-WR843ND.

That's it

Ma trola, pusti ga. Ili ne zna engleski.
Zašto bi inače ponudio ovu prvu rečenicu:

You could get some better condition than TG782i , type Speedport . Well , if this does not go as you tried , put on " N.Power "
and connect to the wireless network of T-Com router and create a duplicate or another network .

Drugi dio sam ugodno iznenađen kako je preveo.
