Hello!
I want to connect 15 PC to our Network. We have a normal LAN but in one part
of our building there is only one cable. So we want to use WLAN for the
connections. 8 of the PC's are near the AP. The other 7 are so fare way,
that they can't reach the AP. We cannot connect a second AP, standing nearer
by the PC's, to LAN. Therefore we tried to use the second AP in bride mode.
It is a Netgear WG102. The signal ist now strong enough, but the two AP's do
not communicate to each other. Can anybody tell me, about the right
configuration.
Thanks
Kurt

Hi
Wireless range heavily depends on the environment. The same unit can yield a
distance of 20 feet in one place, and 200 feet in an othe location.
These pages describe few methods to Bridge Wireless.

However given the business nature of setting you are better of getting a

Many thanks for your answer. Your information let me configure the AP right.
It is working now as repeater, and this ist perfect.
