I’m trying to set up a bridging between a remote Linksys 54G, which is also set up only to act as a bridge. My 54G appears to be set up right. If I hook it directly into my Cisco multilayer switch the 54G bridges just fine between the wireless and ethernet. However if I put my Soekris running RouterOS. I can’t ping the gateway from the 54G. I just want RouterOS to bridge and nothing else.
Topology
MLswitch(Cisco 3550) - ethernet - MT box - WDS - antenna <----> antenna - WDS - 54G - wireless hosts
If I can just get the wireless traffic forwarded to the gateway on the switch I’ll be fine.
