Many thanks for the detailed response, it was very helpful!
Only one more question please:
Most of the clients in this wifi network will be iPads, and i have seen iPads are known to be "sticky" with the wifi access points they first pick up.. even though they may be closer to a stronger wifi signal.
In my setup i have the 3 WG103's configured like this:
wifi_01 -> point to multi point (located in center of the house)
wifi_02 -> point to point (located 10m west of wifi_01)
wifi_03 -> point to point (located 10m east of wifi_01)
I thought with this setup I would only have 1 SSID and wifi_02/03 would act as repeaters. Was this wrong? I still see 3 SSID's when I try to connect..
Would you please suggest a way to configure these 3 AP's so that the iPad's can roam freely in the three zones, and only show as one wifi ssid?
the logical positioning is this:
wifi_02 >> (10m distance) wifi_01 (10m distance) << wifi_03
Thanks again for your kind help!
