Default Wireless Range Extender Problem

I'm having problems with a recently purchased D-Linkg DWL-G710
wireless range extender I recently purchased. I bought it to extend
the wireless connection from my 2wire modem/router because the
connection was extremely weak to the point where it was only 36 mbps
and the connectivity was low and unable to ping successfully all the
time to the router. With the extender, I'm now able to ping to the
router successfully and connect to any other computer connected to the
router via an ethernet cable. The connectivity that the dell wireless
computer with netgear wireless cards says that the connectivity is now
50-90% with windows saying the connection to be 54 mbps at low
connectivity, but I can't seem to ping the two wireless computers to
make them recognize each other as I want to set up a home network with
internet access. Anyone know the reason why they can't seem to ping
each other?

Hard to say without a lot more details on what you have and how it's
configured.

I mean makes, models, firmware version, software versions, network
topology, exact problems, etc.
