Two Bridged WAP54G Access Points...



Upon having issues with my Two WAP54G (Which are setup as bridges for
each other). I wanted to readup more on this. And found I would post my
own topic.

My WAP54G Access Point History...
I have successfully configured both AP's to act as a bridge. And
Successfully tested them. This is how I have it setup.

AP01 - Bridged AP going to Switch. This one Gives network and Internet
access to AP02.

AP02 - Bridged for a VoIP Phone. A VoIP phone is connected to this.

So from the Phone it goes like this:

VoIP --- AP02 ~ ~ ~ AP01 --- Switch --> Network.

I have tested this many of times. My First problem arose when trying to
have AP01 goes through a Dark Tinted Window. I soon learned that Tinted
Windows do not like 802.11. So I moved AP01 outside. I had a
connection, weak as it was it would drop the signal and regain it
again, thus dropping any calls being made on the phone. I found the
culperit was the electrical boxes next to the AP02. So naturally I
moved it away from the electrical. And now, It still drops the
connection and I can not figure out why. I believe it is still close
enough to each other, for one it is a straight shot with no big
obstructions. There is a small obstruction, which is only a few wood
frames but this should not cause the loss of conenctivity.

This is where Im stuck. And can not find a solution to this issue. Any
one help?
