From what you've described, my understanding is that the x50 isn't what
provides you with wireless, it's the sr516ac? What I would do in that situation
is set the LAN IP of the sr516ac to a static IP in that lower 192.168.1.x
range and turn OFF its DHCP server. Then plug one of its LAN ports to the
network the x50 is on. It will be an "access point" or "ethernet to wireless
bridge". And you can use the other lan ports as more switch ports :). If your
sr360n has the ability to be a "wireless to ethernet bridge" connecting to the
sr516ac, then give it another static IP on your local network and put it in
that bridging mode. That's different from client mode, which would make the
"LAN" in room A on a separate network, technically, even if you were to use the
same IP subnet. If you CAN'T do bridging mode and you have to be in client
mode, I would recommend changing the sr360n/roomA IP subnet to something like
172.16.x.x to avoid confusion.
