Hi !
Good to see i m not alone :-)!
Up to now what i got is that the dw1000rp adopt the same radio channel of the main wlan and that Changing ssid does not make a new L3 lan , the
extender try to use the same dhcp server of the main
wlan. Infact you see than once connected to the main
wlan the remote host that previously had as gateway
the extender itself change the gw to the ip of tge main ap.
It is a pity that it is not possible to change the radio
channel because this is limiting the range of the
extender. Different radio channel mean
less noise and longer distance between main and
_ext network.
I would like also to connect an ext antenna but no hint from web at the present.
