Good day…
Im writing this wondering if anyone finds the pseudo-bridge option useful and/or how to implement it. Im asking because I have the following setup on a recently built node and it appears that the voip has problems getting through the double nat cluster.
----Ap 1
Simple Diagram of setup ( Main Mikrotik Router ) - Switch – ----Ap 2 ---- Client(s) ---- (Rb Cpe) —> Comp
----Ap 3
… The ap’s are connected via the 192.168.2.0/24 network with the poe port. From there each wireless interface has a dhcp server that is natted (masq) to the main router. I.e on each access point 0.0.0.0/0 is pointed towards 192.168.2.1/24 and from 192.168.2.1/24 0.0.0.0/0 is pointed towards the wan.
On the cpe side the wireless interface is connected via station mode with a dhcp client attatched to it and from there a dhcp server is created on a “free” interface which is natted to the aforementioned. This works fine for http data but anything else is a buzz.
To further clarify things here is an actual segment of the network.
Main router (192.168.2.1/24) — Ap 1 ( poe interface 192.168.2.2/24) (2.4Ghz Interface 192.168.4.1/24 - Dhcp Server)
Client ( 192.168.4.8 Dhcp client 2.4ghz Interface) (Poe Interface 192.178.7.1 - Dhcp Server) ---- Lan
Im quite certain there is a way to make this setup far more effiecient, im open to any insights. Also It would be much appreciated to see where the psedo-bridge option would fit it.
It would be real nice to just plug the cpe into the lan and pull an ip from the main router. ![]()
