Wlan problems with bridged network #1392

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Connecting a secondary router as a client (bridget network)
2.Drops every device frowm wlan.
3.Need to remove the client router ( tried two different secondary routers)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Would like to bridge the secondary router for connecting my PS3 with Lan cable
instead of the built in .b wlan.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I have a N65U with RT-N65U_3.0.3.9-090. Also have the same problems with the 
older firmwares.

Connected wireless as a client. 
The setup is:
2.4 GHZ with WPA2 B/G/N mixed, auto channel 20/40 MHZ
Tried to change the channels, and the security options withous succes.
2.
It means the wifi disappear for some seconds, I think that is the RestartiNIC 
from the log what I wrote above.

Maybe I forgot to mention: The N65U is the primary router in my network on the 
WAN connection. And The secondary routers what I've tried TP-Link 841N (DD-Wrt 
and Gargoyle firmwares), and a chinese mini router (called HX701 mini router) 
with original firmware.

Describe the problem in details, please.

I have a main router, it's an N65U.
I would like to make a small bridged network in my apartment, because I don't 
wan't to drill holes everywhere, but my PS3 has only a 11Mbps wifi.
I have a spare router, this HX701, what I would like to use for making my 
bridge.
I have tried to set the second router as a client and as a bridge, but I can't 
get internet connection from the secondary router. 
And my main router (N65U) wifi is disappearing for some reason, when I enable 
the bridged network. You can see the log in the first comment.
I can't describe the problem more detailed, because that's all, what I can tell 
you. The settings are in the second comment.
Maybe I f***d up something in the bridge setup? Do I need to set anything on 
the main router? It should be ap only?

HX701 should be in AP operation mode. If there is no such option, dhcp server 
and firewall should be disabled on HX701. Set its IP address in the same 
network as LAN on RT-N65U. For example, LAN IP on RT-N65U is 192.168.1.1. Set 
LAN IP on HX701 192.168.1.2. Then fix dhcp pool on RT-N65U - "IP Pool Starting 
Address" 192.168.1.3.
That's all I think. Check wiki page on

_increase_the_coverage_area_of_%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8BWi if I forgot something.

I've tried to set is as an AP with no succes. And tried to set it as a WDS 
Bridge with no succes.
If I use the AP client mode, then I can see the HX701 on my ASUS router's 
client list, but I don't have internet connection on HX701. In WDS mode still 
no internet. Maybe something wrong in the options, I will try to change some 
other things and see what happens.

Still drops the connection sometimes, but now I have internet connection on the 
secondary router. I think I will finetune the settings and it will be okay.

Yes, I changed the channel bandwith to 20 MHZ only on the 2.4 GHZ frequency.
