They do not act as a bridge. If installed access points will be on the same network, everything else you said is correct.

awesome.

any recommendations? i need to do this at my new house and currently have a 2.4/5 ghz asus & a tmobile wifi hotspot asus router.

i was going to put both of those in the center of the house & an access point at each end (house is 4200sf all on one level).

i'm just assuming with that amount of square footage wifi will SUCK at the far ends.

So I would not actually even need a router? I can pull drops off my 16port switch and use some of those drops as ethernet drops to say my computer, fire tv, xbox, and other similar devices. Then use some of the other drops for access points. Likely dropping each drop over each room that needs wifi. Would it switch between access points seamlessly as you move throughout the house? Or do I have the whole scenario wrong and I do meed the router?
