I having issues with connectivity after bridgin two interfaces on a RB153. The config is as follows
- ethernet 4 and 5 are bridged. Subent is 192.168.2.0/24
- Ethernet 4 is connected to a PC
- Ethernet 5 is connected to a SOHO router that is terminating a cable modem connection. It is the gateway (gateway is 192.168.2.1)
- Wlan1 is configured on subnet 192.168.3.0/24 and has a DHCP server and pool configured. WLAN ip is 192.168.3.1
- Miktortik default gateway is set to 192.168.2.1 and is set to the bridge interface
- NAT is disabled on the mikrotik as the SOHO router is performing NAT
Issue:
- PC connected to ethernet 4 has proper connectivity
- Wireless clients can connect and get an IP address (their gateway is set to 192.168.3.1) but they have no connectivity. I can’t even ping the wlan interface of 192.168.3.1.
Just to ensure I have the wireless setup correctly, I changed the wlan IP to the same subnet as the bridge and added the wlan1 interfaceto the bridge. There was no connectivity problems in this config.
What do I have configured incorrectly?
