That setup works if you are doing NAT on the radio. We are bridging through the radio, and all our towers/APs are different subnets. We assign a private static IP to each radio. So the installer would have to change the IP info on his laptop to match the subnet of the radio to log in. That will be difficult to teach our installers. Josh mentioned using IP Alias, so I might give that a try as well.
