Default WG103 Access Point Addition

We currently have a Wireless network that is private and guest. This works well. We now need to extend our wireless network (both private and guest) to another building (this building has a wired lan connected to the primary lan. Will the WG103 extend our current SSIDs? (Is this better than working with vlans?) Lan devices is about 20. Wireless devices is 10-20.

Thanks...

the first access point we tried made the entire lan available to guests (folders, printers, etc.) and not just internet access. Our current wireless has a key for private (office staff) and a guest network (open).

My need: an access point that will connect to the current private and guest SSIDs and act accordingly. Is the WG103 such a device?

you would look for devices that can do Vlan and vlan capable switch to control better traffic

I'm on trip so I have limited to access the site so you are you own but VLAN should be used
