Connecting TPlink CP1200 with CPE510 POE for Wi-Fi in a Metal Building
I have an TPLink AC1200 Acess point direct wired to my modem. It's currently broadcasting 5GHZ wireless signal to a metal building 200 feet away. Wi-fi works great and have great connectivity if the doors are open. I have a TP link CP510 that I was planning to mount on the exterior of the metal building, set it up in clinet mode, and run LAN cable inside the building and set up a wireless roter inside the building so I don't have to have the doors to the building open for wi-fi connected devices.
1st will this arrangement work?
2nd is client mode the approprate way to set up the CP510
I've already set up a Static IP for the CP1200 and base internet connection and attempted to configure the CP510 as a client but not having much luck.
Looking for help and input.
Thanks.
