I had a question about the setup of my wireless repeater.
It says in the setup manual to "To repeat the wireless signal,
enter the 12 digit Ethernet MAC Address of the wireless router or
access point."

my dlink 614 router status page shows 3 mac addresses.
LAN MAC Address

WAN MAC Address (the same as the sticker on the bottom of the router)

Wireless MAC Address

Which am I supposed to use?
When I use the lan mac address, 2 access points show up in my wireless
site scan, both with the same ssid and channel.
When I use the wan mac address, only one acces point shows up.
When I use the wireless mac address, only one shows up.
Is the wireless mac address the right one?

thanks for any help

Just think a little bit. You are trying to repeat a signal from your router
for your wireless devices. So which MAC address should you use?
