I am needing to setup my Aironet 1231 to connect some remote computers to a Cisco home wifi unit wirelessly.
Here is what I need:
CiscoLinksys E1000 provides my wireless Internet connection in building A ----> Cisco Airnet 1231 is in building B and cat5 cable cannot be run between the buildings. Building B can see building A's wifi signal but only on one side. I need to provide wifi Internet to the entire B building. ---> Cisco 3550 PoE switch ----> another Areonet 1231 ---> Laptops via wifi.
OR
CiscoLinksys E1000 ----> Cisco Airnet 1231 ---> Wifi PC's
Either setup will work. My goal is to provide Internet access to one or more laptops via wifi. How would you set up the Areonet?
As a: Root bridge, Non-root bridge, or a Workgroup bridge?

You can try using a WGB. I have never tried it connecting to what you have though. Here is a link.
