VII.8
Multihop tree repeater
You can also extend the coverage area in several directions and still get full
connectivity by adding one or more intermediate repeater devices.
Configuration summary:
Mode: 802.11na, HT mode: 20MHz, channel: 36, country code: FR, ESSID:
ACKSYS. You can obviously change any of these parameters as long as
your choice makes sense.
This topology shows that repeaters interconnection is not limited to a line.
Nevertheless, the repeaters interconnections are limited to a tree structure.
However this does not limit data exchange, which can take place between
any two devices in the tree.
Product
F
(the last product in the tree) must be set to access point mode.
Theoretically, product
F
could be configured in repeater mode but the client
portion of the repeater would consume radio bandwidth trying to associate.
