2800 aironet - Add an AP wireless

[Thierryazur]

Hello,

I have already two 2802i. One as a controller and one as AP. The 2 Aironet are connected on the network with cable.

Everything works perfectly

I need to add another 2802i, but impossible for me to connect this third by cable.

It seems that the Aironet products can connect each other in wifi to create only one network

2 days later, I don't understand how I do that.

Please someone can help me, step by step, to setup the 2802i, if it's possible.

Thanks in advance

You need to search for keyword "wireless bridge" or "wireless mesh"

But...look at this thread Rasika mentions : 

Mobility Express image allow AP to run WLC functionality within it. It is not act as autonomous image where you can put radios into "Root Bridge /Non-Root Bridge/WorkGroup Bridge mode)

This should indicate you cannot expand your current setup with a wireless bridge.

this page gives same info..

Features not supported by Mobility Express

• Mesh mode
• Workgroup Bridge (WGB) mode
