station pseudobridge not working

RouterOS General
1

I know I’ve done this in the past successfully, but today I was unable to make it work.

I deleted the config so it is completely blank (not default) and then added only the following:

Wireless: Type = station pseudobridge (and I set the ssid and password).

Bridge contains wireless and ether1

That’s it. That is the entire configuration. No firewall, nothing else at all.

I connect a device to eth1. However, I am unable to ping that device from the rest of the network.

If I temporarily assign an IP address to the mikrotik bridge, I can ping the mikrotik from the rest of the wifi network, and I can ping the eth1 device from the mikrotik terminal, and I can ping devices in the wifi network from the mikrotik.

However, I am unable to ping the device in eth1 from the rest of the wifi network.

It’s acting like the bridge is not working.

Is there some other trick to get pseudobridge working? I realize that it only works with 1 device, and that is fine.

it should work. I have pseudobridge running here as well - and no issue at all. please post your config. thanks

This is the entire config:

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1
/interface wireless
set [ find default-name=wlan1 ] disabled=no mode=station-pseudobridge ssid=MyWiFi
/interface wireless security-profiles
set [ find default=yes ] authentication-types=wpa2-psk eap-methods="" mode=dynamic-keys supplicant-identity=MikroTik wpa2-pre-shared-key=MyPassword
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=wlan1
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether1

Are you using a newer v7 software versions? Or are you using the older v6? I’m using 7.13, but I also tried 7.11

Try to change bridge protocol from rstp (default) to none.
