Bridging the WAN interface.

Thu Mar 27, 2014 9:16 pm

Hey.

So I had to create a bridge with my WAN interface and eth8 (where I have a TV box that connected), and it works fine, but the ports in the other default bridge now dont have internet access anymore. Is there a quick fix for this?

Sure I can, its the default config though with the only difference being that the WAN interface (eth0) and eth8 are bridged together. And when I did that, the interfaces in the default bridge, bridge-local (eth2-5) no longer have internet access. Which Im guessing makes sense but not sure how to resolve the issue. I can still access the interface from eth2-5 though so I can log into the RouterOS web interface just fine.. Just wont get any internet connectivity.

Move your WAN config from ethet10 to the bridge.
Like DHCP client e.g.

Well the odd thing is that when the gateway interface is in bridge with the TV-box interface, I can still access the web config through the IP on the gateway interface, so is it possible that Im not getting internet because everything is not on the TV-box subnet on the ISP side?

Basically, I need it to appear as if the TV-box interface is connected straight to the wall, so it will get the proper IP range ip from the ISP DCHP server, while still letting my WAN interface on the router get the internet-VLAN IP range IP from the ISP.

No idea how to make it work, as currently I can only have one or the other, depending on whether or not I bridge the WAN interface and TV box interface or not.

Help here would be much appreciated!

Cheers!

If Internet and tv are split over vlans, you need to configure them.

You don't have to bridge the external iface with other ports for internet connection, this is done through routes..
