Wireless connection problem

RouterOS Wireless Networking
1

Is it possible to connect the router board 133c3 to regular wireless router? (e.g. linksys, d-link, etc…) If so, how to configure the router board and/or the regular router so that my pc can surf the web wirelessly? Below is the setup which I want to construct:

PC —(cable)— Router Board 133c3 —(wireless)— router —(cable)— DSL modem (internet)

Please help. I’ve spent a week to setup this simple network and it still doesn’t work. This is only the phase 1 of my project. If it’s not gonna work, I need to consider other solutions as the due date is approaching. Thank you very much.

Do you have a wireless card and antenna in the 133c?

Yes.

So you need to setup wlan1 as a station, if there is any security set it up.
run dhcp-client on wlan1
add a ip nat masquerade rule and setup ether1 on a different subnet with dhcp if desired.

I cannot see the dhcp-client at winbox. Is there any other solution? Thank you.

It might not be loaded - not sure what version ROS you are using, but you might have to download the All Packages for the latest version of your ROS.. unzip it and then copy the DHCP module into the Files …

Reboot the router and when you go back into winBOX you’ll find that the DHCP module is now visual under IP in winBOX

Hope this helps

go under system packages and make sure dhcp is enabled.

Thank you very much. But I cannot setup the dhcp server correctly. I followed the doc but it’s not working. Can anyone provide a step-by-step setup instruction. Your help will be appreciated.
