Today I want to build a wireless bridge using AIR-AP1131AG (running WLC) and TP-LINK wireless router. The result is failed. May I know AIR-AP1131AG is support bridging the wireless connection with other vendor's access point or not?
In the TP-Link I already match its SSID, Channel and put the mac-address of the AIR-AP1131AG. In the WLC I already see too TP-LINK mac-address is already become a client.
Region : Argentina
Model : TL-WDR4300
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
Region : Others
I have Enable WDS Bridging and run Survey which detect the other SSID to be joined with the correct MAC address.I had filled the password of my second THOMSON v 585 V7 with the correct Auth Type both routers broadcast on channel 11.But my TP-Link 2543ND cannot made it work.I also disable DHCP and changed my LAN ip to 192.168.1.2 and can access it over my lan.
The setup:
(1) E3000 as root router - IP: 192.168.1.1 - DHCP Server: Enabled - Start IP Add: 192.168.1.100
(2) TL-WR841N as bridge - IP:192.168.1.2 - DHCP Server: Disabled - WDS Enabled
The problem:I bridged (2) Wirelessly to (1).when i'm connected to (1) there seem to be no problem at all, the internet is working just fine and i can even ping & connect (2), i guess that means the bridging is working.But when im connected to (2), I get a 'limited connection' & I can't connect the internet. I also can't ping & connect to (2).The IP assigned for the computer that is connected to (2) Wirelessly is not matching the DHCP confg. (169.254.228.216).I have reason to belive that the problem is somehow from a wrong configuration with the LinkSys router but i dont know what it could be. i started from scratch, reseting the two routers over and over again while trying different configurations but with no luck.
I had problems joining a 1131AG AP to a "new" 5508 WLC with 7.4.100.0 running. This AP has been connected to a, for me unknown controller for years. Now the customer wants to move this AP to a newer 5508 controller with 7.4.100.0 We [URL] could not get this AP to the controller connected. Now I have this AP on my desk. I have a 5508 (7.4.100.0) as well. I connected the AP to the same network as the WLC Management -> AP did not connect, tried to download the "new" IOS but didn't seem to work, same as already in the old tread. So I tried to login to the AP, but it seemed to have a for me unknown Account / Password.
-> I did a reset of the AP by pressing the mode button (about 2-3 sec.) during Power on (not connected to the network). Now I could log on to the AP. I deleted six crashinfos and connected the AP back to the network.
Now the AP joined the controller.
Does a "unknown" Password prevent the AP to join to a other WLC?
The AP hat 15740928 bytes total (6409728 bytes free) space on the Flash: was this enough for the new image? 15740928 bytes total (7798272 bytes free) after deleting the crashinfos
The customer has more AP's that has to join the new controller, would be nice that we don't have to reset all APs.
I have question about compatibility. I had set up two Cisco AP AIR-AP1131AG-E-KP. They are set under one SSID whith clients roaming between them. I want to add one or two new APs. I would like to use AIR-AP1142N-E-K9. Are they compatible? Are there any issuess using these two types together?

- 1 switch (not Cisco)
- 1 DSL router which is the default gateway (not Cisco)
- 2 Wi-Fi Access Points (Cisco AIR-AP1131AG-E-K9)
If he tries to establish a PPTP VPN when he is connected to the wired LAN, it works but when he tries the same from the wireless LAN it doesn't work. He says he'd tested it with Windows Firewall disabled. Is there any configuration command that can enable/disable PPTP VPN traffic pass through a Wi-Fi connection? I've never seen something like this and I use PPTP VPNs over a Wi-Fi connection every day without any particular configuration on the access point.
Here's the APs config:

I am currently working on a project where I need to design a complete wireless solution for a huge building. I performed the wireless rf survey by configuring the wap's to broadcast a SSID and walked around gathering rf coverage data. When configuring the test WAP's i did not join them to a lan controller ( AIR-WLC4402-50-K9 ) but simply created a static ip and ssid to broadcast but modified the internal antenna gain to +128 to change the direction of the broadcast. There are two other ap's already joined to the lan controller on a guest network (configured by another contractor) but when I go into the lan controller web gui I do not see anywhere that allows me to modify antenna gain on the individual WAPs. Also, once the waps join the lan controller they dont seem to be accessible via web. How I can I modify gain per wap?

What i want to do is connect these APs and broadcast the same SSID (e.g Aironet and NOT Aironet1,Aironet2..etc). Doing that, a user with a laptop can roam between these APs and won't have to re-enter the password of the SSID every time he changes AP. I would also like the encryption to be with a 128bit password key. From what i have read, i need a local authenticator to do what (Something called Local Radius Server).
I have some network experience but not a lot so here is my problem.I have a zyxel q1000z from qwest that i want to bridge to my dir 655.I go through the settings to put their router/modem to bridge mode. This units default ip is the same as tslinkink, 192.168.0.1 so i change the d-link to 192.168.0.2. I then go into the D-link and enter my isp's pppoe settings and password. I reboot when i am done but can't connect to the internet.It shows connected but that's it. I want to use the d-link as the only router as the zyxel has very few settings and has slowed down my netflix.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI rencently moved house and after 10 years on cable at 19400 Mbps I'm now on ADSL 1 at 1500 Mbps. I have a DIR-655 which I want to keep, and I've purchased a DSL-526B to connect me to the Internet. (I was originally told ADSL 2+ was available, but then I was told I am on a pair gain system and only ADSL was available.
Before I set up bridging I changed my password on thr DSL-526b now I can't log into the device. Is there a way to fix this without a factory reset?
The DIR-655 has all my DHCP reservations, ACLs, Web filtering, MAC address filters, QoS and schedules. The DSL526B has only a small subset of the features of the DIR-655 so I want to set things up to use the DIR-655 as the controlling device and the DSL-526B as nothing more than a modem.
Once I'm back into the DSL modem, I can set it to bridge mode. My DIR-655 manual appears to say nothing about bridging. So...
(1). Do I only have to enable bridging on the DSL modem?
(2). My ISP runs PPPoE. I note that both devices support this. I assume I leave the PPPoE settings (username, password etc), in the DSL modem, and do not put the details into the DIR-655.
(3). I then plug ethernet cable from DSL-526b to Intenet port of DIR-655
(4). I use 192.168.1.250 as the DSL-526B's address. I used to use the same address for the DIR-655. I assume I need to give the DIR-655 a new address (Eg 192.168.1.251)?
(5). DO I still point the PCs at the DSl-526B for the gateway and DNS or do I point them to the DIR-655?
I realized that when I connect dir825 on bridging mode to my current voip router provided by my ISP (dvg-n5402) ,shareport does not work as it seems to be using the default gateway to find the usb, which in this case default gateway goes to the gateway of my voip router. Is there any way that I can make shareport use the gateway of my dir825 instead?

The simple solution is to shell out for a wireless printer, but I have access to a cheap (and good) ethernet only printer. Now, how to connect it? I have a spare old router, which I'm thinking of connecting to the printer. I'd then have to get the router to join the network (is that possible?) or somehow bridge them. The to devices to join would be this and this.
I have a redundant Cisco EPC2425 that I want to use as a wireless bridge to connect to my current home router (an EPC3925).
I have got the channels/band/keys matching yet the 2425 is failing to connect to my home router. I have set the 2425 in bridge mode and currently can only set the wireless properties.
I have both ends of the supposed bridge referencing the other's MAC.
When I try to enter advanced settings on the 2425 I get a notice that the function has not been enabled.
What can I try to get these two boxes talking to each other?
I'm trying to bridge two buildings with two WAP200E. The connectivity is fine, but I'm only able to get one VLAN through the bridge. That is the default VLAN 1 wich is untagged. I have two additional VLANs wich is tagged. I can not get these two through the bridge. I have set up a single SSID, and enabled VLAN. I have also tried to set up more than one SSID, mapping each VLAN to separate SSID's, but bridging several SSID's between two AP's make the AP's loose connectivity periodically. What would be the propper way of bridging several VLANs between two WAP200E ?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a desktop connected to a wireless network. I have a router that will be used to allow open access to the internet without allowing direct access to the existing network, There is no ethernet connection in the area and this router was ree with limited features. So no Wifi as WAN I want to use the desktop's ethernet NIC to obtain a WAN connection. For now I can not setup a VLAN and must configure the two networks as poorly described. Sadly I am not familiar with bridging connections in XP and am unsure about specifics. Also, as a quick test, I bridged the connections and lost wireless connectivity.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI 've bought an AP541N & WAP4410N for the purpose to wireless(ly) bridge my TV with the Internet. The AP541N is connected to a AS5505 > Internet. My TV is connected to the ethernet port of the WAP4410N. (Also tried my laptop) I 've set WDS bridging on both APs:
- with and without encryption
- with same and different SSID and/or channel
In AP541N I can see that the WDS is up. However I cann't ping the WAP441N (hardset IP-address in same subnet as AP541N) from the AP541N. Therefore not strange that my TV/laptop doesn't get an ip-address through DHCP.
Although I tried this for home purposes, I gathered that if it worked it would be a nice SMB solution. I 'm a freelancer and I want to be sure that what I propose as a solution/option actually works.
I 've read in this forum that it might not work because of incompatible chipsets? If this is the case Cisco should mention in the datasheets so I don't waste my money or loose my credibility !
I currently have a 2811 and a LAN setup via a sub-interface FA0/1.3 and using a HWIC-AP I have a sub-interface dot11radio 0/1.5. I have them setup to work and surf the inet great, but I have recently been overly annoyed with the fact that the wifi cannot access windows shares on desktops and visa versa with the laptops.
The trick to make this happen is currently they are not on the same subnet. I know the answer is bridging the interfaces but when I do this using the simple commands:
bridge 1 protocol ieee
interface x & y
bridge-group 1
Although what should be simple has failed (good thing I tftp'd my working config). Here is my current configuration.
interface FastEthernet0/1.30
encapsulation dot1Q 30

We have a pair of 1310's (running 12.3(8)JEA3) connecting 2 buildings together. The wired side of each AP is connected to switchports configured as access ports.
But, now we need to extend multiple VLANs across the wireless bridge. So I'm thinking I just need to configure some sub-interfaces on the radio side and ethernet side and bridge them together. But I'm unclear on if I need an SSID for each bridge group. I would hope not. But after reading this, I'm not sure. Most of the documentation seems to be dealing with wireless clients. Well, in this case I don't have any wireless clients and just need to extend VLANs.
These 2 sites are hundreds of miles away from where I am, and I don't have any 1310's to test this out on. Should I be able to load similar software on other AP's (like 1142's) and have them function as bridges to test this out?
just wanted to know if the SA520W can wirelessly bridge (Workgroup bridge, WDS, etc -don't care which) to either an AP541N or AP1252... using WPA2-PSK
the 2 seperate examples would be
Internet --->SA520W --(Wireless 30 feet) --->AP541N -->ESW-540-24P-K9
internet --->Sa520W --(Wireless 30 feet)----> AP1252 -->ESW-540-24P-K9
internet --->AP1252 ---(Wireless 30 feet) ---->SA520W-->ESW-540-24P-K9
in other words do you just go into the config of the SA520W ... enter in an existing SSID name and the WPA2-PSK password and it joins that wireless network. lastly does the SA520W support POE to the switch above or only the AP541N
I have a 1242 Access Point as root and a 871W Router as a non-root bridge (Diagram attached). I have a laptop connected to Fa 0 of the 871W router.
* I am able to ping from the AP to the Router and vice versa
* I am also able to ping from the router to the laptop and vice versa
* But I am not able to ping from the laptop to the AP
All bridging commands seem to be fine. Even tried adding route commands, but none seem to work.Please find the configuration below:

I have my internet coming into my WAG120N and going out wirelessly. I want to setup a wireless bridge between this and an E1500, so I can connect my TV to the E1500 (via an ethernet cable) and have it access the internet. Unfortunatly I can run a cable from the WAG120N to where the TV is. So it I can get the E1500 wirelessly bridged to the WAG120N? I have updated the firmware ont he E1500 to get Bridging support, but from what I can tell it only provides bridging via an ethernet cable. Is there away to bridge wirelessly?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just bought the Cisco E1200 about two weeks ago to replace an older Linksys non wireless router. With my old Linksys, I had an Acess Point installed, a trendnet TEW-638APB. Now that I have the new Cisco E1200 which itself is wireless, I'd like to add my TrendNet Access Point to the netowork and extend the wireless range. However the place in the house I want to put it does not have any CAT-5 cable running to it so I'm trying to set up a bridged connection between the two. I'm a bit new to netoworking stuff but I catch on pretty quick. I've been doing research on it all day between the TrendNet AP and the Cisco E1200 but I'm still a little lost. I've got WDS enabled on the TrendNet AP and have the first MAC address set to the Wireless MAC address of the E1200 but I don't get what to make the next three MAC address. Somone told me to make all 3 of them 00:00:00:00:00:00. Is that correct?
I also have both the E1200 and the TrendNet AP set to the same channel, both are on a 20Mhz channel width, Both have the same SSID though I'm pretty sure that doesn't matter in the long run from what I've read. Also, no incryption on either (no need for it out here).So I guess I'm just wondering how do I use the E1200 as a Wireless Base Station? If that's what it's called? I have upgraded the firmware of the E1200 from 1.0.00 to 1.0.03 but that didn't change anything in regards to seeing an option for a bridging mode or anything. Other than that I'm not sure what else to do.
I'm a little stuck with a 4400 7.0.220.0 + RAP 1550 + MAP 1260 Ethernet bridging issue. I'm using the VLAN tagging functionality and I'm finding that periodically a VLAN that I've tagged on the MAP will deregister from the backhaul and stop passing traffic. If I go into the Mesh tab on the MAP, select the wired interface, remove the VLAN from the list of tagged VLAN IDs and then add it right back to the list, its starts passing traffic again
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have established dual-rlans on different segments.I have a 2960g switch. I created vl2 (management) and vl3 (data).I connected rlan1 (port4) to vl2 and rlan2 (port3) to vl3.My laptop receives a dhcp address on vl3 and the switch (in dhcp mode) receives it's proper address on vl2.Unfortunately a MAC is assigned to each vl and to the management interface. Thats 3 out of the 2 sets of 4.
So a managed switch is NOT the desired device to have on the back side of an OEAP600.In any case doing a show mac address-table revealed that all the vl2 MAC addresses were duplicated on vl3.To the tune of 216 addresses. 108 in each vlan. Which is a close match to the current host counts for each segment 98 + 18.Obviously this application is not what was envisioned by the OEAP team during work-up.The goal of 4 host devices on the rlan is proving difficult to achieve.The client wants 2 pc's and 2 digi-port servers.
I'm trying to configure an 857W to provide Internet connection via ADSL to LAN and WLAN clients on different networks, provided by DHCP. From the documentation, I see that the 857W supports 1 wired VLAN and 10 wireless VLAN. As the only VLAN which can be explicitly configured is VLAN1, which I want to manage the router, for the Wireless sections I have used VLAN11 and VLAN12.
