I have a Symbol AP. Is it possibile to connect with this AP to a wireless router without cable and repeat a new wireless network?

You can connect the AP7522I to any ge port on either the router or repeater and configure natting (on the AP7522I).

Here are the instructions:

Router or repeater ge port----AP7522 ge1 port (DHCP server/natting )))

 

This way you can configure a WLAN on the AP7522 with its own DHCP IP address pool.

Ok, now I think to do this: I have a wifi repeater 5 ghz connected to Vodafone router in wifi.

This repeater has a WAN port and I connect the AP7522I with a cable.

Ok...now is it possible to make this AP DHCP server with 192.168.2.X IP?

I want my devices connected to AP7522I have another IP (not the same 192.168.1.X Vodafone router) and make a separate wireless network.

Vodafone router )))))  Repeater -----→ AP7522I

2 things here:

1 - If you want to connect a device that has no wireless adapter (example printer) to your Vodafone router then yes you can use the AP7522I as a client bridge. So it will act as the wireless adapter but will not allow you to create WLANS and have clients connect to it. 

Example: Printer---AP7522I client bridge )))   (((Vodafone router

2 - If you want to wirelessly connect the AP7522I to your Vodafone router to extend the wireless range and create a WLANs to service wireless clients and so on, we call this meshconnex and this is not possible. Only WiNG APs can have a mesh established between them. 

Example:

A - AP7522I AP broadcasting SSIDs )))   (((Vodafone router. This is not possible

B - AP7522I AP broadcasting SSIDs )))   (((AP7522I AP. This is possible. 

 

I hope this helps.
