I handle the IT at the small business where I work. We have two buildings approx. 100 yards apart. The second building has an independent network with it's own wireless router. Our main building has a peer to peer network with two servers used as a data base connected to a hardwired business router. My boss purchased a Belkin wireless router for our main building and two Belkin WIFI extenders. He wants to use the WIFI extenders one in the main building and one in the second building to extend the WIFI signal from the main building to the second building so that the computers in the second building can have access to the servers. Problem is he thinks the wireless router in the second building will pick up the wireless signal from the main building allowing it access to that network. I don't think one wireless router can access another wireless router won't you get conflicting signals. There is only one computer in the second building for now so I think it would be better to put a wireless network card in that computer and choose which network to use. The network in our main building uses a static IP address. I was aalso thinking about suggesting using a nano bridge setup because I don't think the extenders will reach between buildings. The buildings are line of site. Sorry such a long post. Thanks
