What's the preferred method of setting up multiple A/Ps to cover a
larger area than one A/P can cover on it's own?
Do I use the same SSID and channel on each, same SSID and multiple
non-overlapping channels, or everything different?
Will a laptop be able to seamlessly roam between one A/P and another,
or will it have to manually disconnect from the further one and
connect to the near one?
I've got three D-Link DWL-G800APs, and was planning on using one as an
A/P and the other two as repeaters, but I'm having all kinds of
trouble making this work, and D-Link tech support has been (ahem) less
than helpful, so I thought I'd try something else...
Thanks!
