The Linksys WRE54G Wireless G Range Expander, version 3, was designed for use with Windows 2000 or Windows XP to utilize its included Setup Wizard.For web-based configuration, it required either Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or Firefox 1.0. The device's primary function is hardware-based, extending the network signal, so it does not rely on specific operating system software for its core operation once configured.Later Windows operating systems (like Vista, 7, etc.) can configure the device manually through the web interface by temporarily setting the computer's IP address to a static IP within the 192.168.1.xxx range (e.g., 192.168.1.239) and accessing the default IP address of the range extender in a web browser.
