Most commercially available access points do not support bridging mode between the WAN ethernet port and the wireless subsystem. Bridging will work across wireless and the LAN ethernet ports only. Load distribution is difficult (may not matter though given thin WAN bandwidth). Availability and support might skew your decision to this solution, nevertheless. To avoid these, I'd suggest a wifi mesh. Look up www.meraki.com. Last I knew, they were sold at $50 apiece. Do not have much idea about local availability of similar systems. -- Mohan Sundaram _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
