[smartBridges] Clairfication of Wireless Bridge and Repater Modes

[Dennis Burgess]

First off, let me tell you my current setup.   NOC with Tower, and AP Total unit. Second Tower with AP Total Unit The NOC has two T3s for bandwidth.   In Wireless Bridge Mode, I have two submodes.   submode 1is Point-To-Point.  This allows my AP on tower 2 to talk to my AP at my NOC.  submode 2 is Point-to-multipoint.  Correct me if I am wrong on this, but this allows that SAME AP on either tower (they are both in Wireless bridge mode) to be a Access Point for any clients. If clients are inbetween these locations, I have two towers that they can shoot at for service ..    In repeater mode, it is just like using a router once the AP grabs the signal, the APPO grabs the signal from the NOC and then sends it back out for any clients.    Now if I am wrong, which somehow I am assuming that I am, these two modes are VERY identical.    How have I read the information wrong?   Dennis
