I have a Linksys wireless switch/router and 1 wireless connection on a PC. I am trying to add another where the signal is not strong enough. I bought the Linksys WAP11 wireless access point which I plan to implement midway between the router and my other PC but I am having troble configuring it. 1) Do I use the Repeater choice for the access point ? 2) Is the SSID for the WAP11 supposed to be the same as the one for my router ? 3) Does the WAP11 IP address have to be static or automatically allocated - If auto, how do I connect to the WAP web page after that - by name ? 4) Any other issues I need to deal with ???
