Need some help setting up a repeater.

Equipment used :

BT Business hub 3
TP link TL-WA901ND

Both are wireless N compatible.

So setup so far :

BT is assigning I.Ps (192.168.100.6-100) and 255.255.255.0. Hub is .3 and repeater is .2

Repeater ch 11 and hub ch 1

Both have same ssid and both have same login password and security settings.

From a wired pc I can ping both and I can ping the laptop connected to the repeater, I can connect with the laptop to the repeater but it doesn't have internet connection even though its connected to the hub.

Also the Repeater keeps dropping from the connected screen in the hub connection screen even when I can still ping it from within the hub interface.

First time setting up a universal repeater and the instruction with it are crap to be honest.

Should the gateway for the repeater be 192.168.100.3?

What other settings or mistakes have I made?

Cheers fellas.
 
Got it working, well almost. Its working as a repeater, the laptop will connect to the repeater with a strong signal now from across the road and will ping the bt hub and says it has an internet connection though it doesn't do a lot.

Web page took about 4 minutes to load.

Any clue what I have done wrong?
