Re: Configuring default gateway for laptop with multiple access points



Within your DHCP server, you should configure the "router" parameter. This
is the default gateway.

If you have DHCP servers in all locations that a laptop user goes to, the
problem is solved. If one location does not use DHCP, you can use the
"alternate configuration" tab to specify the addresses of the DHCP-less
network.
