| 295995 | 2004-11-24 23:51:00 | Hi, I know this has been asked before (even by me I think), but I am trying to make a P2P Wlan over 500m with a friend. We both have the same antennas and access points, and have excellent line of sight. Is all we have to do is set the AP's to bridge mode, to the same channel and SSID and away we go? or is it more complicated than this? If so can anyoe find a link.... i've googled extensively. Ash |

| 295996 | 2004-11-25 00:06:00 | That's basically it! You may also need to put in the MAC address of each AP into the other AP so they know that that is the AP to communicate with. | CYaBro (73) | ||
| 295997 | 2004-11-25 11:51:00 | What about IP's. Does each AP need to be configured with a static IP on the same (i think subnet is the word) eg one is 192.168.1.4 and the other 192.168.1.5? Ash |

| 295998 | 2004-11-25 19:07:00 | Yes that's right. I forgot about IP addresses! :( Your PC's will also then need to be in the same subnet. |
