Consult the manufacturer's documentation to determine whether a model supports this feature. Bridges and network repeaters share a similar physical appearance. Sometimes, a single unit performs both functions. Unlike bridges, however, repeaters do not perform any traffic filtering and do not join two networks together. Instead, repeaters pass along the traffic they receive. Repeaters serve primarily to regenerate traffic signals so that a single network can reach a long physical distance.
In wired computer networks, bridges serve a similar function as network switches. Conventionally, wired bridges support one incoming and one outgoing network connection, which is accessible through a hardware port, whereas switches usually offer four or more hardware ports. Switches are sometimes called multiport bridges for this reason.
Bridges lack the intelligence of network routers. Bridges do not understand the concept of remote networks and cannot redirect messages to different locations dynamically but instead support only one outside interface. Actively scan device characteristics for identification.

Rather than connect separate networks in a way that allows devices in each one to communicate with each other, repeater mode extends the wireless signal of one network to longer distances for greater reach. Consumer products known as wireless range extenders work as Wi-Fi repeaters, expanding the range of a home network to cover dead spots or areas with a weak signal.
Most new broadband routers are designed to work in repeater mode as an option that the administrator controls. Having the flexibility to choose between full support of a second router and Wi-Fi repeater support is appealing to many households as their home networks continue to grow.

If the icon has a caution sign, it means that the information needs to be assigned manually. Do error checking. A new icon should show up in the window called "Network Bridge" and it should display the name of the wireless network you are connected to below "Network Bridge".
If not, repeat step 3 to remove the bridge and restart the process. Access the command line. Still on the host machine, open the start menu and in the search bar type "CMD". Open Notepad and be prepared to write down your network information.
Get the machine's network information. A large list of information should show up. Perform a client machine setup. On the client machine, click on "Local Area Connection". Enter the IP information. To enter the network information, select "Use the following IP Address".
Now the three bars should be lit up. In the IP address row, enter the IPv4 address from the host machine, and for the last section of numbers increase it by 1. Example: The Subnet Mask is the same as what was copied as with the Default Gateway. Check the DNS servers. The DNS servers will also be changed to what was copied down from the host machine's network information.
For the first row, enter the information as it was from the Host, and in the second row put in the same number but increase the last number by 1. Finalize the connection.
