Can I create a wireless link between two 871W routers?

Hi all,

The subject says it all. Can I link two 871W routers (ADVIPSERVICES IOS) wirelessly, in either a bridged or routed configuration?

I'm running 12.4(11)T1, and the only station-role they seem to support is root:

r1(config-if)#station-role ?

root Root access point

Any help most gratefully received!

many thanks,

alec

No. With 871W routers you cannot create a Bridge link. 871W routers support the following roles.

a) Root access point

b) Universal client mode

c) Support of Workgroup bridge clients

For information on the roles supported on the ISRs read, http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps5853/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a008067e8e9.html#wp1101651
