Hi, need a little help please.

I have 1 wireless AP in my flat, the signal is repeated by a wireless repeater to the garage, on the same network further away there is another AP hanging off a switch.

I have the 2 AP's set to the same SSID and password and channel, not sure what channel the repeater is on. The 2 AP's are out of range of each other.

Is this correctly set up? I tried with a laptop and it worked good, seamless wireless connection all over.

Only problem I have is my iPhone 4 won't remember the password, every time I come to use it I have to go in the wireless settings and enter the password, anyone know why this is? I tried a HTC phone and it seemed to work ok.

It seems to be working now, I reset the network settings on the iphone.

The 2 AP's are different makes but it should be ok right?

If anyone spots anything wrong here please let me know.

Thanks

Thanks for the replies.

The 2 AP's on the same channel are out of range of each other, the repeater is set to auto so I guess it will set a non-overlapping channel itself.

All seems to be working ok anyway.
