Hey guys

Got a bit of a query about bridging two buildings with wireless networking.

I have a small job to do for a friend where she wants to be able to have a small out house about 30-35 away from the main building, linked to the network in the main building.

Theres two PCs in the out house so the first thing that came to mind was a wireless router in the main building and an access point in the out house.

My question is, would i be able to use any router/access point combination, and then just put them on the same network and have them connect and essentially bridge the gap?

If not what suggestions do you all have about bridging using wireless and what the best products to use are.

Thanks

I think most access points (i.e. not routers) can be put into bridging mode and they will do all the magic for you.
