If the APs are far enough apart physically and don't really overlap, you could name the SSIDs differently (by location for instance) and the systems should be able to automatically join WiFi with the strongest signal and then they would automatically get a new IP... There really is no great solution without a small switch by the m0n0wall, or without daisy-chaining the APs (assuming they each have a few integrated switch ports) -- Bill Arlofski Reverse Polarity, LLC |
