Can't connect to single Virtual AP

Fri May 30, 2014 10:15 am

I have RB 951-2n and have set up wireless as follows:
----wlan1
|---wlan2
|---wlan3
|---wlan4

each wlan has its own security profile (all clones from the same profile but with different passwords)

i have 4 vlans and 4 bridges:
bridge1 has members vlan1 and wlan1
bridge2 has members vlan2 and wlan2
bridge3 has members vlan3 and wlan3
bridge4 has members vlan4 and wlan4

vlans are all on eth1 which is connected to a remote router which handles dhcp and everything else.
my problem is that I can connect to wlan1, wlan2 and wlan3. But when i try to connect to wlan4, the connection fails. Windows says that 'a response was not received from the router or access point'. Mobile phone says authentication problem (clearly showing that the signal dropped to the minimum). Scanning the spectrum reveals that the signal is fine, and that it never drops one bit.

Any ideas to what could be the problem?

Total user base for this is less than 50 people (no more than 20 users at any given moment - 20 mobile phones with little traffic, and 5-10 laptops doing web surfing)

thanks

are you using NV2?
virtual AP's don't work if they are using NV2.

virtual AP's don't work if they are using NV2.
The user not use NV2, because 3 of 4 VirtualAP are working, and obviously must use the same protocol on each of 4 VirtualAP.


About VirtualAP not working with NV2, I remember to have used it, and it works, but I must check again, if I do not remember rightly.

I have no explanation. Today, when i arrived here, my mobile phone has connected to the network in question.
I have changed the MAC addresses on all APs anyway.

Thanks for the suggestions, all!
