how-to: rb133C access point (AP) with DHCP relay

functionality: you want to extend a LAN wireless with a simple access-point whithin the same subnet with DHCP relay.

what you have to do is:

  • join the wlan1 and ether1 interfaces in a bridge
  • give only the bridge a static IP address or assign it via DHCP-client
  • set bridge as dhcp-relay
  • check default route to gateway
  • there is no need to define a NAT rule.

that’s it.

Is there a question here?

Well obviousley not but it answers my problem when I first got a Mikrotik thingi in my hand and started playing with it. So I thought I put here what I was looking for. Might help others.

That is what the wiki is for…
