infatructure is for access point, like one AP connecting mutiple clients and ad-hoc would be for connecting two computers together in a ptp solution.
 
my educated or not educated guess.
 
i have never used ad-hoc mode. :P

Very good point so I guess it comes down to "ADHOC vs Infrastructure" is his question. This I have no idea about the advantages or disadvantages of either.

Airbridge won't talk to airbridge.  One end has to be an ap.

 

That was easy!

Hi Folks,

 

I have a couple of AirNic/AirPoint units in various configurations under test, and they are working fine.  Now we want to look at the hardware that should be used for point-to-point.  We are having arguments here about what the correct hardware configuration should be.  I've been trying to act as a referee but have to admit that my knowledge is a bit lacking - so HELP!!!!

 

CAMP-1:  At location-A use an AirPoint with an omni as the local.  Then connect a second AirPoint via LAN cable and put a directional antenna on the AirPoint to communicate with a mirror system at location-B.  This does work, and I suppose that is the important thing.

 

CAMP-2:  This group says that AirBridges should be used instead of AirPoints for the Point-To-Point link.  Howeverm they cannot explain why the AirBridge should be better.

 

Anyone out there got any ideas.  My lazy option is to stick with the AirPoints because we have a load of spare AirPoints, but if the AirBridge has advantages, then I am willing to have my arm twisted!!!
