Wireless Router & Wired Access Point Question
I have two buildings that are connected to each other via fiber. In
building 1 I have a wireless router. In the second building I want to
connect a wireless access point via cat5. Is there a way to make
both wireless networks have the same broadcast name and share the same
security settings? I want the users to be able to go back and forth
without changing networks.

Re: Wireless Router & Wired Access Point Question
It depends on the wireless router and AP model. In my company, we have Cisco
1200 and 1300 wireless APs in 5 buildings All of tem using the same SSID and
same domain authentication.

Re: Wireless Router & Wired Access Point Question
Hi
It should not be a problem. It might work better if you assign to the
Wireless Router/AP different channel in each location.
