Hey,

Just wondering if anyone can help me. I have a DLink Dir-615 wireless router however it doesn't get me a great signal throughout my house. A friend of mine gave me a netgear wn802t repeater. Can I use the netgear to extend my Dlink? I'm not sure if they would bbe compatible. If they are compatible is there any idiots guide to setting this up?
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Cheers.

should be fine because they both use the same wireless standards.

remember though, repeaters need to be at 50% of you wireless range, to pick up signal and repeat.
they don't repeat if you put them at the edge of your wireless network,
