Thanks zjennings
I've been going through the User Guide and I think it may suit us. Nevertheless, I have 2 concerns about this:
- From what I've seen, the second AP would use the air, and not a wired connection, as an uplink. Am i right?
- RAP5-WN is not dual band. Will it still be able to work as Mesh Portal?
In regards to the 3G connectivity, we're fully aware of it's limitations but we're talking about a backup connection, so I think it should be OK. In any case, thanks a lot for the recommendations.
Again, thanks a lot for the help.
1. Correct, not wired. Wired APs terminating through a RAP is currently not supported.
2. Yes. Here is what I would do, if possible: a RAP-5WN set to 5Ghz as the RMP and two mesh point AP-105 as the actual client access. You *could* run it all on 2.4Ghz (RAP and AP-93), however this is not preferred as the 2.4Ghz will have to share air-time between clients and mesh.
So it all comes down to cost of the ideal recommended scenario versus a cheaper less ideal method.
