    hello as my username indicates i am new to aruba products.  I am trying to setup a new home network and I have devices that must be hard wired to the network, but my place does not have network drops.  i was thinking of doing a wireless bridge between the ISP router and a switch but in reading the documentation i can't find out how to set this up with the AP11.  Is this possible with the AP11, where the radio is essentially the WAN interface?  if not will the AP11D work, or do i need a more enterprise AP to accomplish this goal?  thanks in advance for the help!

    @new2aruba The AP11 does not support bridge mode, however the AP11D supports bridge mode off the additional ports. The AP11D is typically set on a desk and can have more interference in an environment potentially reducing the coverage to a second over the air(mesh) AP11D.  Aruba Instant AP's (Enterprise) support bridge mode on all the AP's.
