Default Re: Dlink AP error while configuring

Hi , thanks for replying ....

I just want to set it up , so that i can use it on other side of the
building. There are 10 computers at other side of the building, I
wanna connect them to our network(of 160 wks) and they will logon
through our domain and acccess our network as well as Internet.

I think so , i did some mistake in setting it up , I made the 1st
working AP as DHCP server and the other AP as Client.... Now to my
knowledge the problem is they both cant communicate, thats the reason
y the second AP is taking ip address 0.0.0.0 on it own.

Primary goal is to connect 10 computer to our network through the AP
and make them behave as if they are in same LAN.
