Point to Point bridge problems
im having issues with point to point bridging a wndap350 and wndap360. background: we have a very long house, with lots of stuff apparently blocking wifi. ive been using a wndap350 for access o...
thanks for the explanation.
at this point, im just trying to repeat. but if the coverage works out, and the signal is stable with decent speeds, i do want to bridge to an area not accessible by ethernet (no way to pull ethernet, so i can use powerline only, and its pretty slow). but wifi coverage is priority #1.
i did configure it as a bridge with that in mind, although nothing is currently connected to the ethernet port. i did this to move the unit around a bit to find if there were any better/worse spots for coverage - didnt even know there was an option to repeat, as the only example netgear used in the configuration manual said "repeating the wireless signal. In this mode, the wireless access point does not function as an access point for clients but..." "In this mode, wireless clients cannot associate with the wireless access point.' so i figured that wouldnt work for me.
