Greetings!
I am meeting with a group of users that meets in a large room. All of the users connect via the wireless. The system consists of a Time Warner Ubee gateway (combo box). We are dropping connections and I don't think time Warner is giving us many connections. I can't confirm the limit on our connections. Time Warner has us locked out of some of the functionality of the Ubee gateway. The Ubee is also physically located too low in the room. My intention is to to do away with the Ubee combo box, use a Time Warner modem, and install my own router and wireless access point. I'm going to use a Linksys LAP N300 access point. It appears it will have good range and will mount on the ceiling. I think this will solve our problems and give us control of the system.
Here's my question: I want to take advantage of the vlan and QoS functionality in the Linksys access point. I need a small router but I don't know what to choose because I don't know what special functionality the router might need to support the vlan function of the access point. Help in picking a router and vlan pointers is appreciated.
