If the modem is not connected though you should be fine and the PC knows the modem is there but not actually dialed in/connected to anything, but perhaps when you are typing that IP address of the repeater it brings up the dial up and dials in,, if so just go to internet options connections tab and set it to not dial out for now while you configure the network thing. Other problem could be iP address conflict, but if all you have connected is the repeater then you should be fine, What is the default IP address it wants you to use to connect to it?? (example:: If it's 192.168.1.1 with subnet 255.255.255.0 ,, Then you have to set your PC accordingly to 192.168.1.2 with same subnet..)
