Link>Welcome!

  • What Hardware version is your router? Look at sticker under the router case.
  • Link>What Firmware version is currently loaded? Found on the routers web page under status.
  • What region are you located?

Lets make sure the 605L supports Repeater mode first: Bridge Mode vs Relay vs Access Point (AP) / Routers vs Dedicated Access Points (AP)

The DIR-605L is a router, not a repeater. You need to buy a repeater.

If you don't see any repeating features in the routers UI, this usually means that this features isn't supported on this model router. As suggested, please find a D-Link product that support repeating or extending modes.

Please review the D-Link DAP model product lines for these features.

Good Luck.
