Hi PLUGers, Need some advice on wireless networking. A hotel we do Electrical work at has asked to add some more wireless access points into the mix as there current 1 point doesn't cover all areas of the hotel. The place is over 300yrs old with some walls at 36inch's thick!!
In my own home network I have my current ADSL wireless router and an older ADSL wireless router further down the line connected with CAT5 (I know the second ADSL bit is not needed, but hey I had a spare one.) The above arrangement works fine with both router having the same ESSID and WPA2 network key. Would adding some wireless access points (without ADSL) be this simple? Am I overlooking something that won't work in this environment? I have also on another network seen wireless access hubs that link over wireless rather than being hardwired back to a central switch. Is this reliable or am I better off with CAT5 between. Thanks Gary
