Hi All,
I’m trying to get some help as I’ve searched and read tons of topics but still coudn´t get my setup workig. Here’s what I have:
1: ISP provider router with DHCP enabled (192.168.1.0/24)
2: Mikrotik RB 750 connected to ISP router getting IP 192.168.1.2 into WAN port (ether1)
3: First Bridge (bridge1) with ether2 and DHCP server into this bridge (bridge1 - dhcp1), leasing 192.168.2.0/24 and Gateway 192.168.2.1
4: Second Bridge (bridge2_ with ether3 and ether4 with another DHCP server into this bridge (bridge2 - dhcp2), leasing 192.168.3.0/24 and Gateway 192.168.3.1
5: NAT configured from source WAN (ether1) masquerade
6: Routes configured for Networks 192.168.2.0/24 and 192.168.3.0/24 as well as 0.0.0.0 for WAN
7: Addresses configured for Networkis 192.168.2.0/24 and 192.168.3.0/24
8: Two Bandwidth control simple queues using PCQ targeting 192.168.2.0/24 and 192.168.3.0/24, in order to share equal bandwidth for clients into these subnets.
Now if I plug my laptop to ether2,3 or 4 I’m getting the right IP adresses and navigating fine into internet, also getting different subnets depending on the ether port I’m using and different bandwidth, until there all fine, however I want to setup two Tp Link 949n as access points, one into bridge1 (port ether2) and another into bridge2 (port ether3), in order to them share network over wireless having bandwidth control as per PCQ already configured into these interfaces.
Then I’ve gone to first TP Link 949n, and configured it as AP giving LAN IP 192.168.2.3 subnet 255.255.255.0 and GW 192.168.2.1 and connected its LAN1 port to ether2 (bridge1) of mikrotik, also done the same for second TP link 949n, configured it as AP giving LAN IP 192.168.3.3 subnet 255.255.255.0 and GW 192.168.3.1 and connected its LAN1 port to ehter3 (bridge2) of mikrotik.
The thing is, its not workingm the APs are not linking with mikrotik and once I connect my PC to these AP’s its not getting IP from DHCP, also if I remove the cable from APs and plug direclty into PC I’m getting IPs from DHCP, if I turn cable back to AP’s and plug my PC to another LAN port of AP or connect to the Wireless I’m not able to get IP or navigate into internet.
Any help ? Already tried the same solution putting a Dlink DIR601 also into AP mode and also doesn´t work. Any tip on my setup ? Any improvement/fix needed ?
The reason why I set up this is that I need to share my internet over two Tp Link wifi routers configured as AP, sharing equal bandwidth for clients into each AP, giving a different bandwidth for each AP. Thank!
