@Byteguy One more question if you please--Using a pair of CPE510 to get the signal out to the docks and then going with EAP225 to provide a mesh network. CPE510 supports 5 GHz. EAP 225 supports both frequencies. So, can the EAP take the 5GHZ transmission from the CPE510 and rebroadcast on both frequencies. Most wireless devices nowadays seem to work well with 5GHZ, but some older equipment can only see 2.4. That's the concern.

@Byteguy, the EAP cannot repeat the 5GHz signal of the CPE, but this does not make much sense to me either, since you will need two CPEs per directional link anyway. Then just connect the EAP on the dock by cable with the CPE (also on the dock) and you have the EAP forwarding to its WLANs all data from/to the backhaul created by the CPEs.

Now I feel sort of stupid. I knew that but was overly worried by the project and apparently forgot what I learned the last couple of times I used CPEs! Sheesh! Musta had a brain fart! But thanks for the quick reply.
