JoeUser,
As far as I read this and into this, you should be good to go.
I believe that any switch or hub is a repeater(?) within the 100m
envelope. Others may differ....... :)
I do suppose that there may be special boxes that are true "repeaters"
in this context; like for cable extensions beyond 100m. I have never
seen/used one. The last time I measured my home I will never need a LAN
"repeater." Whatever? My home is not that large! Go for it. Your plan
should work well.
Best,
Duncan

The switches are needed anyway to provide AP's down the line. I hoped
that it could also act as a 'repeater' in regards to the strength. I
would have three total... mainline from Information Super Highway to
about 230 ft - place 10/100 switch run another 200 or so and drop
another switch and then another 200 or so and terminate with a switch.
The first switch and last switch are going to be actively used, the
middle switch would really serve as a repeater (but could be used from
time to time - maybe).
I thought the liit was 250ft not 328ft, so thats good to know.
So, now what do you guys think? This doable?
