Hi, I want to create a hotspot that can accpet at least 50 people,
I have two aironet AP`s. Here is what i want to do
Wired Clients
VLAN Tagged |
DSL --------> WRT54G --------------------> 24 port switch ------- Aironet AP1
5 mbit |
|
Aironet AP2
I have the current setup working, however I was not able to test it with about 50 clients connected. I have read on this forum that the wrt54g can only accept about 15 clients well. Does this still apply in this case? Does the switch/AP`s lower the load somehow?
Would this be a reasonable dsl speed (assuming web surfing is the prominent activity)?
Would i be better off trying to switch the linksys router for a desktop PC ( i have a 533MHZ/512 MB RAM pc free to use) ? Would it run kamikaze for x86? If so, is that build much different than the linksys builds?
I am new to networking so I do not really know if this would be sufficient, or such a setup makes sense. Hence, any input will be appreciated. If there are other ways to set this up please let me know.
Thanks.
