Thanks! Only one question though - how important is to set APs to different channels? When I was setting up a AP as repeater before I was told it should have both the same SSID and channel as the other one. This time I don't want them to overlap, right?

It is not mandatory, but it's good practice. Each time the wifi radio needs to send data, it listens to check if someone else is transmitting in its channel. If someone else is transmitting on the channel, the wifi radio will have to wait. So, this practice is efficient usage of transmission medium and enhance overall data throughput.

@kender can the same mac address be used for all access points? (is that according to the proposal, the PCs would see several access points with the same SSID)
