Hello everyone

I have 4 Vigor AP800’s that I would like to configure so I can provide seamless wireless connectivity over both floors of my office.

Testing has shown that no signal can get through between the floors so I’m thinking that I might be better off with all 4 of them wired back to a switch which in turn the ADSL router uplinks to but still able to pass a connection around between them if a user goes mobile.

The manual isn’t as helpful as I had hoped so please can anyone here possibly advise?

Regards

Philip

I'd set up two subnets, one for wireless the other for wired.

If you don't you may see issues when people are connected via copper and they enable their wireless connection.

You won't have issues roaming via wireless if all the AP's use the same encryption and are on the same LAN segment, make sue the AP's are set to auto channel select or make sure you change the channels to suit.

BTW I've only ever set up large wireless LANS using Cisco AP's and have retired my 2820 for a Apple Timecapsule & Draytek 120.

I'd have expected to see some sort of diagram with a few AP's connected to a LAN :-
