Using Dasher with a wifi repeater?

Open chimpy opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

Hey all,

I'm using a wifi repeater: TP Link RE450 I linked a Dash button to this repeater. Dasher is connected to the "original" wi-fi network.

When I click the Dash button the router sees it with its actual MAC address (not the repeater's), and the repeater sees it with its actual MAC address also.

However when I run Dasher's find script, it only sees the repeater's MAC address. This is frustrating as there is another client connected to the repeater and Dasher can't distinguish between the two. But the router can.

Is there a way around this?

Thanks!

Did you ever find a solution to this? I can't get Dasher working, but I'm trying to use amazon-dash to do the same thing and I have the same problem. Have you found an alternative button or software?
