[QUOTE="skays, post: 1879714, member: 137863"] Thank you Patrick. Will show those links to the tech who will be coming tomorrow. FYI...Jake. I typed in the IP address 192.168.0.1 you provided me. That took me to my tp-link SafeStream Gigabyte router's site...Again, this router is mounted inside the metal cabinet in another room. The Netgear AP devices are just taking that router's signal and transmitting it via WiFi or providing a port with which to connect my computer via ethernet cable if I choose not to use the WiFi signal on my computer. However, I do use all three Netgear WiFi signals for my home iphone, laptop, and ipad use...and anything else which may require access to my WiFi network. Now to just figure out why my iMac has been disconnecting from the ethernet connection and trying to reconnect using the iMac's own IP address...which doesn't work. Will keep you posted. Again, thank you to all for clearing up some things for me and providing some great sources of information. [/QUOTE]
