Just a simple question:
What should I expect to see when 2 D-Link APs are actually communicating in bridge mode?
Do you see one bridge appear as a connected PC on the other bridge?
The reason I ask is because I'm trying to get 2 bridges to talk to each other, but am not sure how to tell when it happens.
The APs are DWL-2000+.
Thanks.
I have 2 900AP+ setup in bridge mode and no they do not come up anywhere except their individual setup screens that are tied to their ip addresses. I know they are working because when I plug a computer into the one in the basement and it goes on the net, then the bridge is working. I do not have any wires from bridge to bridge so if the computers are on the net, then the bridge is working.
That's what I was hoping not to hear.
So simply pinging from a computer on 1 end to a computer on the other should tell me when 'first contact' happens.
Thanks.
I never used the ping command so can't say but probably. Just go to network neighborhood and if they can be accessed than it is working.
