Configure the same SSID, security and encryption settings on both devices, and connect the SonicPoint to the SonicWall directly or via a switch. &nbsp;Set different wireless channels on each device.<br />

I have confirmed this with the Sonicwall engineers. This is a real shame as it is a major limitation for the device.

hi,<br />
<br />
another question to this issue...SonicPoint Interface is X6, LAN is X0, internal WLAN is W0. Want to bridge the W0 to X6 but i only can bridge it to the X0 interface (PullDown only shows X0).<br />
<br />
any idea?<br />
<br />
thanks!

For the internal WLAN, I think that is your only option.<br />
If you have another WLAN with SonicPoints or other WAP on an interface, you can bridge that with any other.

I have a Sonicwall TZ210W and a SonicPoint. I would like to be able to assign the same SSID to the two devices as well as the same DHCP scope.<br />
<br />
I hope that I will be able to cover the entire house with these two devices as well as provide access to data stored on our local server.

How to Bridge a Sonicwall TZ210W and a SonicPoint WAP

Wireless networking is anything related to the transfer of data between two (or more) devices without the use of a physical connection, ranging from getting advice on a new Bluetooth headset to configuring sophisticated enterprise level networks.

Wireless Networking

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.

Routers

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the set of networking protocols that define end-to-end connectivity specifying how data should be packeted, addressed, transmitted, routed and received at the destination. This functionality is organized into four abstraction layers which are used to sort all related protocols according to the scope of networking involved.
