“Compatibility with Directv cinema connection kit I have a wireless CCK that came with my directv subscription which allows my directv receiver to connect to the Internet and access a variety if on demand programming. Although I can get the CCK to connect to my network through the range extender, I can't seem to keep a connection. After a few minutes the connection drops and I have to restart the setup process. Does anyone have this same problem and suggestions on how to fix?”

Works fine with my dish HD programming. I have router on one side of house and extender on the other. No problems home about 1700 square feet.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The extender isn't made for super high performance. Streaming a directv box would maximize the usage you could get from the extender, thus your dropped connection.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Is the wireless extender physically connected to the primary router with an ethernet cable? If not then that is most of the issue. The throughput on a wireless extender that connects via wireless back to the primary router is typically not sufficient for streaming, even low res video. My recommendation is to purchase another wireless router, connect the routers together on your LAN, placing the wireless routers where the outer range of the wireless overlaps enough for coverage using the lower channel on the primary and upper channel on the secondary wireless. When using three or more attempt to spread the channels out as much as possible.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Are you experiencing the same problem with computers connected to the Belkin Ranger Extender? My guess is it is a problem with the ranger extender. I had the same problem with the Belkin Dual Band Range extender, it would keep dropping the connection every 5 minutes or so. I ended up buying a different brand extender and have had perfect results.
