Access points wirelessly looping messages

Question

I've been experimenting with networking (new to OC/lua in general) and I've run into a problem where two access points seem to be treating their wireless connection as a wired loop between them, leading to signal spamming. Is there some way to prevent this?

 

I've looked over my entire network to make sure there's no wired loop, this is an entirely wireless problem between the two access points.

Given both access points have their signal strength set high enough to reach each other, yes, they will bounce messages back and forth. It's something I haven't yet decided whether to do something about, and if so, what. Frequencies / wireless channels might be one way. For now, you can work around this by having a dedicated "receiving" access point (with signal strength set to zero). Or bounce the signal often enough so that the duplicates get killed off that way :P
