Hello,
I want to solve a simple task: Connect wirelessly one device via Ethernet port as the device does not have a Wi-Fi interface onboard using MAP lite.
Here is my config
when I enable bridge between Ethernet port and wireless connection, I can’t connect to master AP and even ping it inside master LAN. PC, connected to LAN port doesn’t get IP address from master network. Same story with another master AP in another LAN.
Any ideas?
What could be wrong?
please advise how I can post complete settings.
Yes, correct, I need a bridge setup, “ethernet client” should get IP from the main network.
I have tried CPE mode from quick setup, it works in the same way - main AP stops work when I enable bridge.
Can you explain what is behind “main AP stops work when I enable bridge” ?
“Stops working” ? In what way? You can’t connect anymore with another client? You lose connection from another client? Or what makes you decide it stops working.
You already indicated : “network storm” in the title. Indicators go to 100%?
As long as you do not get an IP address then IP based connection will not be possible (indication is you get a 169.254.x.x address )
What if you give the client a manual address in the proper range of your main AP.?
Reducing the complexity would be to remove WLAN1 from the bridge and use “station” mode , and give ether1 a DHCP client. Does it obtain an IP address then ?
Full config comes with: “export hide-sensitive” in new terminal, or in a telnet or ssh session., what you already did before, but did cut the info too early (parts are missing).
