I have used the RC1258 for many years with direct connection to the router at home. No problems. I recently tried operating using a Netgear WNCE2001 using the wifi from the same router. Again, no problem. I then took the same setup to another location (a museum where the router is located in the basement). The wifi was very weak at the operating position, so I put in a Netgear N300 range extender - worked fine and the bridge then logged in without a problem. However, the RC does not recognise the output from the Netgear bridge - the green pwr led flashes continuously. When I then reinstalled the RC at the home QTH I got a flashing led at the aux/mic connection indicating no SIP. When I reset the remote site (power down/up) the connection is restored. I went through the procedure twice - each time I connect to the Museum wifi via the bridge the RRC pwr led flashes continuously but at the same time necessitates a reset of the remote RRC when the local RRC is returned to the home qth. Strange... Any ideas?
