AP1 needs to have AP2's MAC address in its Remote MAC Address field, and AP2 needs
to have AP1's MAC address in its Remote MAC Address field.
3. Verify the following settings for both wireless access points:
• Both APs are configured to operate in the same LAN network address range as the
LAN devices.
• If you use DHCP, both APs can obtain an IP address automatically (as a DHCP
client). For more information, see
• Both APs use the same channel, authentication mode, and security settings.
4. Verify connectivity across the LANs.
A computer on any LAN segment should be able to connect to the Internet or share files
and printers with any other computers or servers connected to any of the two LAN
segments.
