Set up TZ100 and SonicPoint Ni
I've purchased a SonicWall TZ100 and a SonicPoint Ni access point and I'm having difficulty setting up the two. Basically I want to set up the system with the following features:
Two SSIDs, one for myself and one for guests
The ability to move between the two access points seamlessly depending on which one I'm closer to / whichever has the stronger signal
A guest network that will also allow connected devices to seamlessly move between access points.
Is it possible to accomplish these tasks with this equipment? If so, can anyone direct me at some resources that may aid in the setup?

It's a TZ100W - I'll check the resources you provided and update soon. Thanks!

Further clarification - I need the networks to be the same on both the sonicwall and sonicpoint.

Thanks for the info. I've spoken with the folks at SonicWALL and it looks like I'll need a TZ200 and two (or more) sonicpoints to accomplish my goals.
This should help you out

You'll basically be creating two profiles.
this is more for the SonicWALL, but it should be helpful for the sonicPoints
