Hello

This is what I am trying to do, on one end of my wireless link I have a Cisco Aironet 1200 Series access point connected to a hub on our LAN.

I want to get this to talk to a Netgear ME102 access point in a remote building and hang a hub off this point, the hub will then feed 6 PCs via cat 5. Need Dhcp to work over this link.

Have no experiance with wireless solutions, is this possible ?
Thanks in advance

Pele

Sure it is possible. Just depends on what you mean by remote building. How far away is the other AP? What kind of interference is in the way? You may need to look into an antenna solution, something like the Orinoco AP-500 point to point antenna system. Give me some more info about distances involved and I will see if I can help.

The Building is not that far away max 300 meters but I want to put the other ap in the attic of the house, there is nothing in the way except for the roof tiles of the building, the signal will have to penetrate these to access the other ap

Thanks for the help
