The reachability areas of these access-points are overlapping. There is a DHCP server in the network that supplies IP adresses for the access-points and the clients, e.g. notebooks with wireless pc cards. What happens when you are in the area that is covered by two access-points? I mean, which access-point takes over the 'routing'? -- Chris Christoph P. U.
