Verify the following parameters for all access points: • Verify that the LAN network configuration the ProSafe 802.11gs are configured to operate in the same LAN network address range as the LAN devices • Only one AP is configured in Point-to-Multi-Point Bridge mode, and all the others are in Point-to-Point Bridge mode. • All APs must be on the same LAN. That is, all the APs LAN IP address must be in the same network. • If using DHCP, all ProSafe 802.11gs should be set to "Obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP Client)" in the IP Address Source portion of the Basic IP Settings menu. • All ProSafe 802.11gs use the same SSID, Channel, authentication mode, if any, and encryption in use. • All Point-to-Point APs must have the AP2 MAC address in its Remote AP MAC address field. 4.

Verify that the LAN network configuration the ProSafe 802.11gs are configured to operate
in the same LAN network address range as the LAN devices
Only one AP is configured in Point-to-Multi-Point Bridge mode, and all the others are in
Point-to-Point Bridge mode.
All APs must be on the same LAN. That is, all the APs LAN IP address must be in the
same network.
If using DHCP, all ProSafe 802.11gs should be set to “Obtain an IP address automatically
(DHCP Client)” in the IP Address Source portion of the Basic IP Settings menu.
All ProSafe 802.11gs use the same SSID, Channel, authentication mode, if any, and
encryption in use.
All Point-to-Point APs must have the AP2 MAC address in its Remote AP MAC address
field.
4.
Verify connectivity across the LANs.
A computer on any LAN segment should be able to connect to the Internet or share files
and printers with any other PCs or servers connected to any of the three LAN segments.
Wireless stations will not be able to connect to the ProSafe 802.11gs in the illustration
above. If you require wireless stations to access any LAN segment, you can add additional
ProSafe 802.11gs configured in Wireless Access Point mode to any LAN segment.
