    We have a remote office that I need to slightly extend the wireless network in and I was hoping to get some guidence.  I am not a network person, so please excuse blatently ignorant statements.

     

    We have a 3600 controller and the RAPs we using are primarily the RAP-5WN's.  I believe I only need to add a single access point to the office I'm referring to.

     

    I know the information I've provided is somewhat sparce, but I will provide any info that someone needs (just don't know what else to provide).

     

    Thanks in advance,

    You can talk to the partner or Aruba sales team to get some specific help in your situation.  If this office already has a RAP5, then adding a second one won't really be a best practice.  RAPs are meant to be a single installation and not multiple RAPs per site in your case.  

     

    Now, if this is another office, then a RAP may work for you.  If it's just basic wireless, consider an Aruba Instant AP.
