more than one wireless device on LAN?

[peterguk]

ok, general question here....

I have just bought a pair of D-Link DWL7000AP devices to connect my ADSL router downstairs to my office upstairs where i have two PCs and my Exchange Server. I intend running them in point-to-point bridge mode, which as i understand, is an exclusive mode, i.e. neither can act as an AP for e.g. a laptop downstairs.

Is it possible to connect an AP as well as the pair of bridges??

If it helps, the bridges can do 5ghz as well as 2.4ghz. Was wondering whethere i could run the bridges at the higher freq. and the AP at the lower one..

You can run an additional an AP too. You do not have to use the 5GHz.
