wireless bridge adapter?
Hi there,
in our local network we use some WAC720 access points. Now we would like to connect some LAN-only devices to our network at places where we don't have any wires. Are there any Netgear devices which can do something like a "wireless-to-wired"-bridging with our WAC720s?
Or do you have other suggestions to solve this problem?
Thanks a lot for your support and many greets
Stephan
Hello Stephan,
- Install a cable

- Desperately want to make you unhappy? Configure one existing WAC720 near to the area as a point-to-point device (AFAIK co-existing with the AP mode) Add another WAC720 in WiFi bride (point-to-point) mode. WAC720/730 User Manual p.130 ff.
- If this is not good enough, start with #1 again.

Hey schumaku,
thanks a lot for your fast reply!
Yes, I think you're right. We really should consider installing cables.
