I'm looking to install WiFi coverage in our big concrete building. I recently purchased an ASUS RT-N56U from Newegg for my general area of the building. However, I'm looking to setup a professional type wireless network in and around my building with multiple points of access (I most likely need like 4 more Access Points for WiFi). We have an existing wired networking in the building.
I have a few questions...
- Can I just buy 4/5 wireless access points that go with that router? Like these: ASUS EA-N66 & ASUS USB-N66? They should work with the router, right?
- Can they all share the same SSID & Channel or do I have to run them on different channels?
1will let someone more knowledgeable answer fully but you can't have overlapping APs with both the same SSID and channel. – James – 2013-06-28T20:06:09.210
James summed up more or less the only problem you'd have, although I've seen setups where there was a router at each point separately, suppose this could offer you a bit more security, but what you have planned should work. – user88311 – 2013-06-28T20:10:25.850
