Any way to use my Linksys router as repeater?

[Fresnel]

Hi all networking gurus, just this year i bought a linksys Wireless N Home Router WRT120N....and just last month i subscribed to MIO TV which made me use the given ADSL/Router Modem. Now my Linksys router is useless say the least. Is there any way i can configure it to run as a repeater to my hall?

Kindly advise!
Thanks in advance!

WRT120N 1T1R half-N router? Yes & no.

For yes, you have to hook a cable from the 2wire to the LAN port of the linksys with DHCP disabled on the latter.

Hi thanks for the reply. So does that mean i need a physical connection from the 2wire (MIO) to the Linksys? Then what's the SSID i need to have for the Linksys?

Is there no way to use it as a repeater 'wirelessly'?

Yes.
Same.
No.
