    Hi

    I have 2 linksys srx router wirless access points working in my same office. They have the same SSID so where ever I go in the office I will be in my network. So, in theory everything should work fine, right?

    The 'only' bad thing is that from time to time I have to reset one of the routers because even I get an IP address and gateway I won't get anywhere, I won't even be able to ping ips from my own network. I always have to reset the same router, not either one.

    Do you think that the wireless router is bad or is there an issue of configuration?

    Regards,

    You can have both on the same SSID but you need to make sure they don't overlap wireless frequencies. Channels 1, 6, and 11 do not overlap. A lot of routers come with a default channel of 11 set. Check this out and reset to different frequencies if necessary. I can think of some other possibilities for your problem but this is the most likely one.
