Almost Finished Please Help a Idiot out With a No Brainer!

Wed May 07, 2014 6:55 am

Hi, I No noting about any of this at all! I am Lost, Dumb and been working on this hours! I will start with what I have.

1. I have a RB711 AP Station!! (Higher Level) AP Yaaay!
2. I have a RB711 Station! (low level License.) Client only.

Here is what I have right this moment. I have a WildBlue Connection, Or Ecede whichever thats actually a Sat Dish internet type connection. I that that Connected to a LinkSys Dsl Router (Works Well.)

The WildBlue(Ecedeia) Router with only 1 Ethernet port is connected to the Linkysis which has 4 output ports. One output port is connected to the POE then to the AP Station Radio. Clear Enough? Good!

The second (Client Only) Radio is Connected To the Laptop which I am typing on!!!!!! Thats it... All Done!!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PROBLEM ---- My Laptop Icon near the Clock says I'm connected to the internet (No Matter What.) I spent 2 hours batteling this and I cant figure that out.

When I take My Laptop, and My Radio (HOME) 1 mile away with my Parabolic Dish, (using a wire for now) I want to know when the connection here at the main office goes down.

I do not know how to set the dynamic or static , or any of that. If anyone could be so kind to give a script kiddie a perk of knowledge id be so grateful. (((BTW))) I hate the ideal of even using a Linkysys, I wanted to connect my POE DIRECTLY to the Ecedia Router thats not even Wireless. Talk about cheap, it only has 1 ethernet output LOL. Do I have to use a Switch or router?

At this time, I dont know how to properly Program the AP Station to the Cheap Router or even the Single Ecede Router. I'm in desperate Need of help here.

I am not here to hear anyones Lectures on how I need to take a class or any of that, I want this done, (I have work I got to do) this is dragging me down, I need To get back to work tommorow on something important, I've been on this all day. .

BTW< its only 2 Parabolic Dishes, one being AP Station and the other a Station. I'm using Sat Dish Internet. (Ecedia)

Any Help will be Appreaciated. I do not plan on learning this stuff, I just want this done A.S.A.P! It works good like it is, but I just cant tell when the internet is up or down from the other end cause usually the icon gets a yeller Exclamation On it or something.
