In need of assistance. I am trying to cover a big area wirelessly. I have 3 APs. They are not all the same brand. One is WAP54G and the two others are Belkin Routers (used as APs). The setup is as follows: The Cable Modem is connected to a netgear 4 port switch (FVS114). The switch is then connected to another switch (#1). Switch #1 is connected to AP#1 (Belkin) and to another switch (#2). Switch #2 is connected to AP#2 (also a Belkin) and to another AP (Linksys). The first Belkin router is configured as an AP. I think that I need to reset all of the APs so that they match. I am only confused as to whether or not they can all have the same SSID and Gateway Address and Subnet Mask. Currently, only the first Belkin AP works. The other APs are having trouble allowing devices to connect to them locally. Please respond as soon as possible. Thanks.
