New Wifi repeater cannot see _my_ Wifi

wireless-networking router wifi-configuration repeater

The problem was that the repeater and router were configured to auto channel choosing.

Once I manually set the channel, the repeater is able to connect to the router.

    I'm trying to connect to a new Comfast (CF-WR300N, see at botom) as a WiFi repeater.

    The irritating thing is that all seems fine, but when I get to the stage of choosing the network to repeat (see capture below), I can see all the wireless networks around me, besides my network.

    Any suggestions how to debug/solve this problem?


    Both repeater and router are configured for:

    • Auto channel
    • Mode 11BGN
    • Channel Width 40MHz
    • Max Tx rate 300Mbps
    • Frequency 2.4 MHz

    available wifi CF-WR300N
