Chain type communication

Using multiple network adapters to establish Wireless communication with the AirStation Pro will cause a drop in the information throughput. Therefore, it is highly recommended that you use the AirStation Pro for dedicated bridging between LAN’s. This is illustrated in the diagram below:

A	C
WLA-AWCG	WLA-AWCG

Wireless communication is impossible because A and C are too far apart.

The range must be between 200 - 300m indoors or 600 - 1400m externally.

A	B	C

B acts as a repeater, establishing better communication between A and C.
