Video Conference Wireless Bridge Hardware Set Up
Hello,
we have two video conference machines that work over IP and have a RJ-45 ethernet interface or a RJ-11 ISDN interface.
Because they also work over a ISDN network they need very little bandwith, much less than 100Mbit/s. So we thought to use them on a 802.11 network segment, to avoid the cost of using the ISDN network.
What about this hardware? D-Link DWL-2100AP, that has a SMA connector, and we want to put parabolic grid antennas. If necessary also we can use some other AP on the way as repeater. Let's say we need to do a 3Km link in a urban environment. Is this AP suitable for the job? Is any AP suitable for this job or we need an AP with some specific function?
In the past I only used APs for talking to clients, never configured and AP to talk to other APs. I think the 2 end point of the connection must be set as root AP and the rest as repeater?
I'm a little confused, I know the post il generic and I might be blamed, but on the net there is also a lot of confusing docs, so if someone could post some hot links would be very appreciated.
Anyone used D-Link DWL-2100AP for such jobs already?
Thanks
