Hi, Frank.
I remember reading you CAN extend your wireless performance using multiple
wireless access points, but as I haven't had to do so I can't offer any
advice here. Hopefully, other list members can address this point.
However, as far as the DHCP server goes, you would only need ONE combination
router/access point. This would serve as the DHCP server. Any other access
points would not need to be routers as well. This also has the benefit of
saving you a few bucks per unit.
