how to configure a bridge

My network schema is like this:

_____________                      ____________             ______________
|  Mikrotik  |      wireles       |   Mikrotik  |   ether  |       PC      |         
|PPPoE Server|------------------- |brige perhaps|----------| PPPoe Client  |
--------------                    --------------            ----------------

My question is: what configuration should i set to the mikrotik in the middle so the PC can connect to the pppoe Server? thank you very much.

There is a very similar setup here:

http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Transparently_Bridge_two_Networks

So if the radio in the AP (the mikrotik in your set up hosting the PPPOE server) is servicing only the station (the mikrotik in the middle) Then is think above link would work.

If the AP is servicing both other clients connecting directly and the station - then I don’t know. But I am interested in knowing the answer and I hope that someone more experienced then me will comment on this.

Please comment.

I don’t agree. CRB / IRB is not even mentioned in the 700 pages manual on RouterOS. We are in the beginners forum and it is honestly a bit difficult to relate the description available on CCO to the examples given in the mikrotik wiki and then tell what works and what does not.

I read the examples available on the wiki and I guess my question is, if it is possible to have the AP set up as “ap-bridge” and have the same radio set up with a WDS connection to a station - or am I way of target here?

I would use an EoIP tunnel for this:

On the device in the middle bridge EoIP and LAN together and on the PPPoE-Server add a new bridge, add EoIP to it and attach the pppoe server to that bridge.
The only thing to pay attention for it that both ends of the EoIP tunnel have a different MAC address which has to be in the range 00-00-5E-80-00-00 to 00-00-5E-FF-FF-FF
