ok hey guys here my situation...
my network consists of 5 or 6 computers...
as of right now it work in general good .
but im lookin to upgrade, a few problems i will point out..
this is what im running
main network from cable modem to netgear router, 2 main computers or more..
then a wirless bridge that connects to the other building 100 or so feet away.
with a belkin wirless router to cover 3 or 4 other computers.
modem>>>>>netgear router //192.168.1.6>>>>>>comp 1 //192.168.1.xxx
>>>>>>comp 2 //192.168.1.xxx
>>>>>>Wap11 b wirless bridge //192.168.1.251------
---------------------bout 100ft one tree bush in the way.-----------------------
--------------------------
----wap 11 bridge 2 //192.168.1.253>>>>>>belkin router/w wirless //192.168.1.7
>>>>>comp 3 //192.168.1.xxx
>>>>>>comp 4 //192.168.1.xxx
>>>>>>comp 5 //192.168.1.xxx
--------wirless comp 6 //192.168.1.xxx
this setup work pretty well the bridges are just wap11s in rubbermaid containers
on the side of the buildings, but with this fridgid weather the cold starts to
affect them
so im gonna move the waps in side and use a outdoor anttena this time.
another problem is on the 2nd building only one computer likes to connect at a
time, if your surfin on one comp the other comp loses full connection and vise
versa ...it works great when just one computer is using the bridge but 2 and
limited connectoin problems.
and right now file sharing between the segments doesnt work..
so i need 2 new waps for sure.. would like opinions on bridges..
and im not sure if i should upgrad the interior routers as well.. to maybe change
multiple connecton problems...
any setup tips would help also..
im kinda stuck on were to go thanks.....
