Re: [smartBridges] APP repeater firmware?

Yes thats what I was talking about. Is there no way you can make a version of the firmware that allows your firmware to turn your address 4 field off in repeater mode so that it can work with other products? If you can make non-sb be able to connect to repeater why can you not make the repeater connect to non-sb for uplink? Now I suppose that to use your product I have to get back to back radios everywhere I want a repeater? ----- Original Message ----- From: smartBridges Tech Team To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 7:49 AM Subject: RE: [smartBridges] APP repeater firmware? You mean associating aPP in repeater mode to Cisco AP? We recommend only Primary AP from smartBridges because of the address 4 field required. When you associated airBridge to the repeater, do you able to ping to the repeater?   The firmware fix the issue of instability and disassociation with the client device. Also non-sb client devices can able to associate to the repeater.   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jerry Carter Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 12:11 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Re: [smartBridges] APP repeater firmware?   I think I may be confused here on this repeater update. I recieved the fix from smartbridges. Loaded it. It will connect to my cisco 340ap just fine. But when I get an airbridged connected to the repeater I cannot do anything. Like the signal stops at the app Repeater. What exactly was the update supposed to fix? I was hopeing it would just be what it says... A repeater. Any insite here?   Thanks again, Jerry ----- Original Message ----- From: Jerry Carter To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, May 31, 2003 1:09 AM Subject: Re: [smartBridges] APP repeater firmware?   Thank you Tom I sent them an email.

You just need to make sure they support 'Address 4' field.   There was a comment about a firmware release fixing this issue, here is a copy...   ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alex Wong" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, May 20, 2003 10:09 AM Subject: RE: [smartBridges] Repeater Mode   > Yes, there is repeater mode issue in the current firmware and we have > fixed it in the new firmware but we are not ready to release it as we do > have other fix to address.

Will there be a beta firmware to allow repeater mode off of someone elses ap? I need to know I cannot replace all repeaters and ap's at once. If I will not ever be able to use repeater mode with non SB then I need to rethink the stragity.   Thank you, Jerry ----- Original Message ----- From: Vasu (sB Tech Team) To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 30, 2003 11:43 PM Subject: RE: [smartBridges] APP repeater firmware?   We did not release any beta firmware for testing with respect to the repeater issue.   Vasu   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jerry Carter Sent: Saturday, May 31, 2003 5:00 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Re: [smartBridges] APP repeater firmware?   I thought I read somewhere that there is a beta that addresses the repeater issue? ----- Original Message ----- From: phantam To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Friday, May 30, 2003 3:08 PM Subject: RE: [smartBridges] APP repeater firmware?   What beta?   From: Jerry Carter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 30, 2003 3:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]   Where can I get the new beta for this?
