    Hi,

    I have wireless network at work. I have a D-Link 524 wireless router with an Hawkingstech signal booster and a high gain outdoor antenna. I need all of this because I work in an industrial sight where there is a lot of steel structures, buildings, signals etc.

    Were I have all these equipment set up is in a trailer that used to be about 50 feet away from where my office is at. The reason for this is because I can't get another telephone line to the office.

    However with all these equipment I still had to buy a D-Link 8000AP wireless repeater to put in the office. This helped for quite some time, but know they moved the trailer another 50 feet back and now I am getting no signal.

    I bought a other D-Link range expander DWLG710 (repeater) to try and repeat the signal again but I am getting the "Limited or no connectivity" warning whit a good strong signal. Can't you have 2 repeaters in on wireless network? And if that is not the case how should I set it up so I can get internet connection?

    Thanks for any input.
