Mobility Site - View Single Post - Dell Axim and DWL-800AP+

I was wondering whether anyone else was having issues with their Dell Axim , Dell TrueMobile 1180, and it working with the DWL-800AP+ (D-Link 802.11b Repeater). I currently have it repeating for a DI-614+ Router and it seems the TrueMobile card finds the repeats and even connects to it but fails to communicate with the network or obtain an IP number from the DHCP on the router. I even tried a static IP number with no success. If i put the repeater into Access Point mode (which means I have to create a separate SSID from the routers and defeats the purpose of the repeater), the Axim will talk to the DWL-800AP+. I was wondering if anyone ran into this problem and if they found a solution. I am going to try contact D-Link and Dell to see what might be the issue. Thanks for any help in advance.
