I purchased three EnGenius ENH700EXT units, for a more broad connectivity to the network, over a larger span of area. I've found the devices to be fairly easy to manage, but I'm not getting the results I want and need.
As router I have an Asus RT-N66U Dark Knight, with the 2,4GHz and 5GHz option.
I want to connect the three EnGenius units to my network with the 5G wireless connection, and broadcast the wireless network via 2.4G to other users around in the area (taken that this is the best method).
I've set up the EnGenius units to 2.4G mode = Client Bridge, and 5G mode = Access Point.
The router is broadcasting 2.4G wireless, and a seperate 5G wireless.
I can't seem to get a connection with the second device, nor does it seem to get connectivity with the 5G option. Moving the device to a different area with my laptop, the signals fade, which it shouldn't, because I'm well inside the initial range of the EnGenius ENH700EXT device.
How do I go forth connecting all the devices to each other, and is my chosen method the most optimal for this kind of wireless network?
regards
