At the roof of my house, I have a computer with one wireless and one ethernet cards. Using MT, I am connecting to remote AP with my wireless card in station mode and with ethernet card by cable to my main computer in ground-floor.
Wireless card successfully connects to remote AP which I can ping from MT machine and also I can ping my main computer in groundfloor. But I can not ping remote AP from groundfloor computer.
The question is WHY.
I put both wireless and ethernet cards in the bridge 1 interface and it should be working, but it doesnt. Remote AP, wireless card, ethernet card, bridge interface and my groundfloor computer are all in the same IP range 192.168.1.0/24. So, why doesnt ping go through the MT to the remote AP?
Hi Maxie!
Problem is in your configuration. You can`t bridge wirelless interface in station mode with ethernet interface.
To transparently bridge two networks use EoIP or WDS feature of MikroTik RouterOS.
Follow this link, there is what you need (How to Transparently Bridge two Networks?):

Good luck!
Hi Maxie!
Every new users had the same problem with MT station mode, I think!
OK, thanks for info.
