After setting up the extender I was finding that I occasionally got IP conflicts on my network. This is probably the result of all of my machines having static IP addresses and not having reserved these correctly on my router. (Too lazy I guess) In the end I assigned the DMA2200 a fixed IP address which can easily be done in the setup area of the extender. What you will need to be careful of though is that changing the IP address causes the registration with the MCE machine to be removed and the user account it connects under to be recreated. This means that the extender wants to run through the setup over again and once done, you will need to re-add the login script to the user account.
