Hi guys,
Have a client who needs to connect two building via a wireless link. (a cabled solution is not viable at the moment, and I know this is a bad idea, but hey!)
Building 1 has the internet feed, DHCP server, and a cabled network.
Building 2 has a cabled network which needs to connect to the network in building 1.
They have 2 wireless access points and 2 good external weatherproof antenna.
When setting up the points, what configuration do I use? I was assuming set one up as a normal access point and the other as a wireless client, and then plug from point 2 to the switch in building 2, giving it access to building 1.
Thanks,
Mal
