client connection problem

i have set 133c with r52 to connect the base station; r52 is set to station mode in 2.4ghz; scaned and connected to base without any problem; bridge the wlan1 end ether1 interfaces ( i know it can not be bridged; but i couldnt get the ip via dhcp anyother ways); DNS and gateway address are registered; but cant ping the server and access the login page; when i try to connect via wds-station (and bridge interfaces as referred) ; no way to connect to the base station. Any ideas how to connect properly to base and get the ip via dhcp? bdw another question from interfaceses; r52 is connected to network but; no send / receive ? and the icon is disabled (unlike the LAN) ?

Do you have proper WDS configuration on the other side of the link (on the access point), when mode=station-wds is used ?

sergejs ; i ve tired that; but when i try to connect as wds-station; device stucked at searching for network; i guess no; hotspot does not have proper connection.

Maybe I misunderstand what you want to achieve, but you did not explain that very well.

If you just want your RouterOS to be a client to another AP and get your ip address via DHCP:

  • Configure the wlan interface as station.
  • Configure a DHCP client on the wlan interface.
  • Probably configure a masquerading rule for traffic going out the wlan interface.

yes its exactly what im trying, enabled the masquerade but how can i config the dhcp client on wlan interface ? bdw upgrade the ros to 3.0beta10 , bord has crashed as its stated by someone else aswell , now tryin to re-instal via netinstal but still can get bios, since the comp. frezez when u press any key on keyboard!

To configure a DHCP client on the wlan interface, just go to IP->DHCP Client and add one for the wlan interface you need it on!

christian thank for you post; problem has been solved; i found out it under the ip section after your post; then created a dhcp server for lan interface; added gateways and dns ; signal is -41 and rocks :slight_smile:


Hai
nice to read this topic, but it signal -41 i think to stronge, the best signal -45/-50
my suggestion is better will you decrease it signal.
