I cannot get a linksys range extender WRE54G connected, to see a wireless network,with a linksys WRT54G wireless router v.2.1

I see nothing on support site to auto install it from web?!

on set up wizard, it cannot find the wireless network,but both laptops are connected to the web!!

-followed directions-to disable WEP

-one of the laptops cannot even connect with iit's browser to configure it (192.168.1.240)

-the other laptop can,but still cannot find right networking

-light on the range extender
flashes red, even after re set,turn off 30 secs, etc

I'm stumped! HELP!!

If you state that you followed the directions to disable WEP...i'll take it that you have already tried the auto config button...?? For the auto config...leave the w-router open for any client to connect to it.

When you run the Setup program does it find the w-router...??

Try Changing the channel on your wifi. I've installed a few of the extenders and if there is no interference they just work.
