I have a cable modem connected to a router with built-in 802.11 wireless network. Network is g, I think.
House has there levels and the router is on the top floor. House is also wired for 10/100 network. All outlets return to the router. All the components are same manufacturer. The main router is the DHCP server.
I set-up a wireless AP on the 1st floor and one in the basement. The RJ45 jack on each floor connects to a small 10/100 switch. The AP and other items like a PC or PS3 are connected to the switches. Including the main router that makes 3 access points. All have the same SSID, security type and key. Each floor of the house is about 1300 sq ft.
My question: Will having that many access points in a small area cause problems? Just want a strong signal throughout the house and a fast network.
Your thoughts. Thx.
