2 wireless lans each with it's own internet connection.
Each lan is setup with a different subnet 192.168.x.x
I want to Put a Client radio at Lan 1 , have it connect to lan 2's AP so the members from each lan can access Apache and other servers across this new link.
Sure we can do it over the net but the connection has a DL cap and the upload is slow. I know I can make the wireless link it's the configuration and equipment I need that will make it work.
I have not yet dabbed in layer 2 or 3 setups.
Thanks for any help
Allan

Yeah it can be done... but you might have to make them the same LAN. All you need are two access points in bridged mode connected to eachother using a directional antenna. I used a 14 dB gain directional antenna pointing at another about 250 meters apart, worked great until a tree started growing in the way and soaked up all the signal.
