Hi Chales
I set up a d-link 2100 usind WDS it worked ok
Found a solution for the 3220's
Got myself 3 new Tranzeo 6000 ap's got them up and running in a few hours, the signal is much better no droping out. I could see even after a few hours that i didnt keep getting that little popup "Internet Disconected" at the bottom of my screen. There is no need for a router as one of the units can be set as a router and connest them together wint WDS .
Some lovely flashing lights to tell you they are working.
Got myself some small wheels and made a cool looking set of skates out of the 3220's for the kids.....haha
