Topic: Roaming with chillispot

Hello,

ok, i got my chillispot running smile it is working fine now. But now I have another question.

Is roaming possible with chillispot? I assume yes it is, but what do I have to do to build a roaming network.

What I want to have is a Wireless network on a hugh area where one singe W-Lan router isn't sufficent to cover the whole area. So I will need several accesspoints and maybe some directional antennas to get the coverage I want. What I not want is, that the user has to login on each access-point again if he has already logged in into another one, I want to have real roaming smile. What do I have to do? Which hardware do I need? How I have to build up my network?

I think it is possible. For example, if I have a central router with chillipot and access-points connected to it and the central chillispot router provides the DHCP Server for all access-points. Does it work link this? And what do I have to consider to choose the right access-point.

Is it possibel to expand the network by a kind of W-Lan repeater, just plug it in the power socket and it works only as a "relay".

I hope someone here understands what I want and can help me smile
