Hi,
One of our conference rooms (approx. 60'x30') does not yet have a dedicated AP for wireless connectivity. We're going to install an AP-105 in the future, once we get a cable run to the center of the room.
In the meantime, we need to set up a temporary wireless solution for a team that needs to use the room for about a week. There are several wall jacks that are available and we have spare AP-93h's laying around.
Would it make sense to install two (2) AP-93h APs in this room, about 20 ft apart, with one set to 2.4GHz and the other to 5GHz? The disadvantage of using a 93h is that it only has one radio, but it can be set to either 2.4 or 5.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Just plug the AP105 where there is a jack somewhere in the room. You only need to survive a week and you don't need to have an access point perfectly centered; your clients just need to have RF line of sight to it. It is too much trouble to get two AP93Hs mounted, and one tuned to a, then one tuned to b/g. If you only need to survive for a week, you can tough it out with an AP105.
