WDS? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_Distribution_System
or http://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/en/servermanager/windowsdeploymentservices.mspx? I assume that it's the former rather than the latter. There are 2 big drawbacks against WDS: * each hop cuts the bandwidth in *half* * Your security is severely limited - the only real access control options are WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK. Anything else is proprietary to the AP vendor you use. Lack of standardization is the cause of the second point.
