I’m looking for some general advice from people who have tackled this scenario before so that I can purchase and configure the right equipment the first time!
Looking to link two buildings approx 1/2 mile apart via wireless. They have a clear line of sight and clients need to be able to either route correctly between networks or better still be on the same subnet.
Can anyone recommend a good hardware/software combination which would serve this purpose?
Secondly, I have been installing wireless solutions for leisure sites for a while now but resorting to Cisco gear. Which combos would be suitable to serve which purpose of providing public hotspots and routing through a squid proxy?
** Sorry if this seems a bit of a basic topic, but I would rather bow to greater knowledge that make a real muck up and get put off this great kit **
SXTs arrived this morning. I followed the walkthrough that you referred me to and everything went well on part 1, but when I created the bridge in part 2 you couldn’t winbox to either device?
Do you mean you can’t connect to the remote SXT?
Did you add ether1 and wlan1 to bridge port?
Do the configuration step by step. It should have no problem.
try to connect via IP instead of mac address. I think you are using Win 7 or Vista and the firewall is not turned off.
For connecting to RB via mac address the firewall should turn off or has an exception for port 20561
