Hi All
I'm considering of somewhat extending my wireless at home. I have access to some old 3502i in Autonomous mode.
My main AP at home is an Ubiquiti model though. Problem is, I don't have any Wi-Fi in the cellar, second problem, I don't have access to the two flats between mine and the cellar. I do have a tiny bit of wireless signal in my cellar and I'd like to use the 3502i as a repeater/wgb.
Now please correct me if the following is wrong:
For WGB the root also requires to be a Cisco, which in my case would not work.
For repeater, I have to configure the dot0 as per: https://rscciew.wordpress.com/2014/10/25/autonomous-ap-as-repeater-with-wpa2/
Can I now use the dot1 for client connections? If yes, do I need to configure anything more than what is stated on the previous link? I assume yes, because the dot1 has no configuration at the moment. Or do I have to make the same configuration on the dot1 as the dot0?
Here is my current, untested, configuration:
3502-ug#show run
