Hi, I had setup a wireless bridge beetween a remote router and an access point, where I can connect my PC using an ethernet cable. Now I want to access Internet from my PC without using the ethernet cable, but wireless. I know that in bridge mode, the access point do not act as a WAP... can anyone help me? I already tried connecting another access point to the AP in my home, but it doesn't work!
Thanks,
Claudio
Try setting your router up as a repeater instead of a bridge.
I didn't find this option in my router, I only have a WDS option and using this it works fine, but too slow, instead in bridge mode it works very fast, but I can't connect my pc using wireless. Do you have any idea why adding another AP it doesn't work?
Claudio
Have you tried using a "crossed" cable or a hub/switch?
A crossed cable, I can ping my AP but Internet doesn't work.
Claudio
Does the AP you can ping have its DHCP server turned on?
I think that one would of expected that as it is repeating information. I would also imagine it might be 50% or more slower.
No, all static ip.
