I have a linksys wrt54g that I installed ddwrt firmware on some time ago to use as a repeater, so I assumed I could do the same to my TP-Link TL-WR841N. Well after I installed the ddwrt on the TP-Link I was surprised to see no repeater mode on it. My question is, is there any way to make it work as a repeater. The main thing I need is to be able to connect my wireless security cameras to it. My main router is a TP-Link AC1750 but I need to connect the cameras to a repeater in the rear room of my house. Thank you for any help.

Look through the reference links sticky at the top of the forum. It used to be a sticky, but I retired it to clean up the 3/4 page of announcements and stickies.

So I guess the answer is I wasted my time installing DDWRT on this particular router. Thank you for your answer.

There is no native repeater mode on Atheros, but if you read through that thread...
