AP800 and 2020vn woes was created by robgreenwood
Hi, I hope someone can help with this one as I'm sure I'm not the first to try this. I'm trying to replace a Netgear wifi extender with an AP-800. Given that my main router and AP are both Draytek I was expecting little issue.

I've been able to configure the 2820 and AP800 to work as a range extender, I can connect to the AP800 and access the web etc, so theoretically this is working.

I have two boxes connected to the AP800 via ethernet, a SKY+ box and a Pioneer AMP. Both boxes allocate an IP address correctly and can access the web via the connection (I can download to SKY+ box).

The problems start when trying to see any box hard wired to the AP800, if I try to ping anything hard wired it's not there, I have also tried this with a laptop hard connected, no response. This is a big issue for my SKY and AMP, no remote access to the sky box and no AirPlay or remote access to the AMP.

Any ideas, at the moment the AP800 isn't fit for purpose and will have to go back from where it came.

Thanks

Rob
