ZoneDirector 1200, smart mesh and different APs

[krzysztof_gagac]

Hi,

I am planning to use R510 APs in smart mesh but I would like to use r310/r300 normally connected to the network. Will this all work with ZoneDirector 1200 ?

i doubt it will happen as R300/R310 does not have mesh function hence it would be able to offer mesh downlink and uplink service. I have not tested it and please check before making an purchase.

One more question which is not strictly related to main topic. What is minimum distance between APs on 2.4 Ghz in your opinion. We are struggling with signal as this is all based in warehouse area with narrow racking and difficult products. 

R310 wil be placed on the wall where r510 next to the ceiling 18m above the ground level. I have a feeling that maximum physical distance that we can put them will be appox. 8m away of each other which can be dangerously close.

You need at least 2 R510 APs. One for root AP and the other for mesh. Can you say more about the structure of the building? Do you have the option to have a wall between the R310 and R510?
