Hi there,
I recieve signal from my university WLAN in my
house but only right near the window. I'd like
to extend the range using a repeater but I
don't know whether this would work. The way we
sign in to the WLAN is over a webpage. The
computer finds the signal, then I open the
browser and the WLAN redirects the browser to an
online WLAN login. I enter my username and
password and then it forwards me to my homepage.
I don't know any of the router settings or
anything, nor do I have permission from the uni
to do this. I am a student, so I'm entitled
to use the WLAN. I just wondered how a
repeater works and whether I'd be able to extend
the WLAN without knowing anything other than the
network name?
Thanks, Peter

Look for an Access point with the Universal
repeater mode function.
The only thing you need to know is the campus
SSID or network name to connect to  .
