Can one WA3001 extend all SSID+vlan wifi network exposed by another WA3001 in "Multi-SSID mode" with vlan setups?

This shouldn't be possible since these are two different modes, i.e. the AP in RE mode won't see the SSIDs + VLANs from the other AP.

  @terziyski thank you. but the purpose of the RE mode node is to be able to see the SSID/s of some AP mode node and extend them, (so they work in two different modes), right? Do you mean that RE mode can only extend the AP mode node, not the "muti-ssid + vlan" mode node?

 

In different words, is the Mutil SSIDs with vlan provided by WA3001 extendable? 

 

Regards,

jfz

I must admit that never tested this, but I believe you can't extend "muti-ssid + vlan"  mode node except with another AP node in the same mode.

One other thing that you may test is using a range extender or a device (router, AP) in RE mode to extend one of the WA3001 wireless SSIDs.

If this scenario works then you probably should use a separate REs for every WA3001 SSID to extend them all.

  @terziyski thanks. I think I will repost the question differently.
