Booting 2330s on a Nortel 2350

Good Day All,

According to the WSS Management Software Users Guide, a Nortel 2350 can manage 8 APs but will only boot 3. When I try to add a 4th AP it won't connect. I've checked to make sure I'm not forcing down a new operational image each time the AP boots. If I disconnect one of the existing APs then the new one connects and configures just the way it should but then reattaching the removed one won't connect. Am I limited to 3 APs per 2350?
Thanks in advance for the help!
 
A 2350 will only run 3 APs at once. A 2360 will do 12, and a 2380 will do up to 128 if licensed properly.

You can add another 2350 and join them in a 'mobility domain'. Three APs connect to one box, the fourth connects to a second box, but users can roam seamlessly between them.
 
Thanks for the conformation. Fortunately we had a second 2350 in a mobilty domain on the network and I was able to move the APs around to obtain my objective. The documentation is a little misleading when it talks about maximum APs that can be configured vs Max that can be booted. ( Table on Pg 90 of the WSS Configuration Guide.)

Thanks again for the info.
