wireless non-cisco router with aironet 1242 repeater.

Hello everyone. I'm a newbie here. I just started learning about cisco devices. Sorry if my question seems stupid.

I have a problem. A friend gave me an AP aironet 1242 and he wants to use it as a repeater for his wireless non cisco router.

Is this possible? And if it is how can i do it with simple steps.

Thanks in advance!

Here is a guide that explains the configuration:

Thanks for the quick response Scott. I 've read this quide before i post.

The problem is that i can't connect with serial to the ap. So i can't use commands.

I can connect with ethernet and see the ap interface. When i go and make the radio0 work as a repeater it shows interface down. What i want is simple steps of how to configure it from the interface.

Sorry again.

Well you would have to post your configuration in order for us to help. Maybe you have a bad AP. having access to the console is important.
