I am going to be doing a setup where there will probably be 3 APs hosting about a dozen laptops/PC's. I assume you need to set up some sort of bridging between the APs?? What sort of distance should you be able to get between them?? Once set up, should you just be able to walk around the building with a laptop and it will automatically connect to the AP with the strongest signal??	CYaBro (73)
