help... 3 days with no sleep already!!!

Hi All,

I have a bit of an issue. Currently I use a RB911G to connect to a highsite-Backbone connection. and then I have a RB433 linking to my sector and PC.

So basically this is my setup at the moment.

The RB 911 is connected via wireless connection to the Highsite with the following configuration:
Wlan1 IP: 172.18.40.174 Gateway: 172.18.40.28 - highsite RB
Ether1-local: 172.18.40.174/28 network: 172.18.40.160 - (connects to 433)
Route: 172.18.0.0/12 - Reachable Wlan1

So all the above works…

How do I configure the RB433 linking directly with ethernet to the 911.
Wlan1 IP: 172.18.40.173 Gateway: 172.18.40.174(rb911)
Ether1: 172.18.40.173/28 network 172.18.40.160
Ether2: 172.18.40.172.172/28 network 172.18.40.160 - (connects to 911)

Please help its really urgent and I have spent 3 sleepless nights trying to configure this but can’t :frowning:

The 911 has some routing problems. Are these duplicate ips?

Wlan1 IP: > 172.18.40.174 > Gateway: 172.18.40.28 - highsite RB
Ether1-local: > 172.18.40.174> /28 network: 172.18.40.160 - (connects to 433)
Route: 172.18.0.0/12 - Reachable Wlan1

Maybe you should post “/ip address”, “/ip route” and “/ip firewall nat” from the 911.

…and a few hours sleep might not hurt. Hopefully that is what you are doing now.

Are you doing NAT for all addresses at the edge router?

Dear brother,

With my little knowledge in your RB911 you are using same ip for both wlan and ether-local i think you should use bridging option to forward traffic between rb433 and highsite please anyone correct if i am wrong

I sorted out the problem I simply just bought a switch :slight_smile:

I think this guy has a point.

Adding bridge and putting eth and wlan into that bridge would’ve solved your problem. :slight_smile:
