Thanks
Patrick,
Lars and
eldaria for the comments, I'm definitely getting the picture here. This is very helpful.
So I get that really really seamlessly transition will not be possible, no matter what. But on the other hand, what eldaria described about applications being able to handle small "glitches" in the connection makes full sense to me, and might work well for what I'm looking for. That said, it brings back the question of is it possible to configure the Almond to have the same SSID than my main Motorola router, which Patrick was offering to double check based on the exact model.
Patrick, I simplified the explanation a little bit on purpose in the beginning to make it simpler. But here you go: this is my parent's house, and they live in Brazil. The Motorola router was provided by the local service provider, and it doesn't seem to be a popular device in the US. It's the "
SVG1202 SURFboard Wireless Voice Gateway", which you can find more details here:
http://www.arrisi.com/products/product.asp?id=909It's weird that it's called Arris... I got to the link above from motorola.com, browsing at their "Modems & Other Products" category. It seems like split that part of the business to this 3rd party vendor at some point.
Anyway, any additional information you can share regarding this specific device model and the Almond will be helpful. Thank you in advance!
