Pseudobridge - Client PPPoE - NAT and RouterOS

Hardware MikroTik hardware general

Hi,

i need to configure a routeros cpe that associate to an access point,
has to be a client pppoe and masquerade the ip lan.

Well,
I configured the cpe in station pseudobridge, created a bridge named bridge1, created an interface pppoe-out1 and a nat rule.
Cpe associates to Access point but pppoe doesn’t work!

Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

On mode=station-pseudobridge there might be problems with PPPoE.

If you have one client that should be able to get PPPoE, you can switch to pseudobridge-clone, then it should work for one client.
It’s better to use WDS, when you need PPPoE after client network. If your AP is MikroTik RouterOS, there should not be any problems.

Hi,

i have a vpn (pppoe) concentrator, then an access point and finally more clients that have to connect to internet by a pppoe-client.

The Access point is configured without wds, it’s only in ap-bridge mode.
If i configure cpe in pseudobridge clone, do you think that cpe associates to ap and client pppoe feature works?

Anyway I’ll try!
Thanks.

I have tried mode=pseudo-bridge-clone, PPPoE is working.
Which PPPoE client do you have ?

Hi,
I use a RB411 as PPPoE client.

What do you have for interface wireless configuration ?

I created a bridge named bridge1;
added interf eth1 and Wlan1 to bridge1;
configured int wlan1 in station pseudobridge clone mode;
then I created an int ppoe-client and associated it to the bridge1 interface.

Thanks,

Why do you need bridging, if you setup PPPoE client on the router ?
I assumed you want to deliver PPPoE to the end-client, which is connected to the router.

I need to configure a routeros cpe (RB411 and R52) that associate to an access point,
has to be a client pppoe and masquerade the ip lan.

I configured it as said before.
Is it right?
Thanks.

Use mode=station on the router. Setup PPPoE client on the wireless interface.
Add another private subnet to Ethernet interface, use masquerade, where is the problem with this ?

I’ll try thanks.

Anyway, wlan1 has to be in pseudobridge mode because in station doesn’t associate with access point.

See you.
