Most of the AP's that I am familiar with have a repeater mode which allows the AP to connect with another AP through the RF link instead of the ethernet link. It is a special configuration item though... the standard ethernet to the backbone and rf link to clients is the default (and more efficient) mode. -Hugh

The garage is far enough away from the house that the wireless doesn't reach. There's a gazebo between the house and garage that could act as a relay point. Since it's just 1 person, the drop in efficiency shouldn't matter. Darrell Spice, Jr. [link\|http://home.houston.rr.com/spiceware/\|SpiceWare] - We don't do Windows, it's too much of a chore

I don't know how he stands it. === I can't be a Democrat because I like to spend the money I make. I can't be a Republican because I like to spend the money I make on drugs and whores.
