I have a quick question regarding the configuration of multiple repeaters. I didn't design this network, I'm just trying to get it working, so bare with me.
When I first looked at the current confiuration, all the repeaters used the same gateway and same IP. I don't have much experience in multiple wireless "repeater" configuration, but I do have a net+ background and this seems like a big no no. Correct me if I'm wrong but shouldn't it go like this:
Wireless Router: 192.168.1.1
Repeater A (closest to router)
ip: 192.168.1.2
gateway: 192.168.1.1
Repeater B (out past repeater A)
ip: 192.168.1.3
gateway: 192.168.1.2
Repeater C (out past repeater B)
ip: 192.168.1.4
gateway: 192.168.1.3
Would this configuration work? I'm heading down to try and get it working tomorrow after work, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.
