I have a RG-1000 & RG-1100, and am using an external DHCP-server. When I connect both device via cable to the network, both get an IP from the DHCP, and are fully working
Meaning no physical cable connected to the RG1100, IP received on RG1100 received thru RG1000 from DHCP.
In the AP-manager on RG1100 the IP-interface set to Wireless on RG1100 the MAC of RG1000 added to AP-authentication on RG1000 the MAC og RG1100 added to AP-authentication on both WEP enabled, same parameters/key
Nevertheless it doesn't seem to work
Is this not possible ? Am I doing something wrong ? Any ideas ?
I tried that, the result is identical : doesn't work
Under the tab "Access Point IP" it(s possible the choose out of the list, for either Ethernet or Wireless.
After having rebooted the RG-1100 it seems the choosen Wireless option isn't retained. Of course to be able to communicate with the RG-1100 I have to connect the cable too.
well sitting bull, here's the long and short about the RG-1xxx Lucent devices. I've used a lot of them with converted Karlnet Software as CPE (client side devices) in WISP situations.
The OEM non coverted RG-1xxx is a residental gateway device,, ie it acts like an ACCESS POINT or ROUTER in it's vigin mode from lucent.
THE LONG ANSWER----------------------------------------
WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH IT
Set the AP channel (frequency) Set one 5 character ASCII Encryption key (40 bit encryption only)
WHAT YOU CAN'T DO WITH IT
Set the AP Name, Group name, ESS-ID (same as "SSID", or "Service Area") Set the AP bit rate Set a Hex Encryption key allow/disallow clients by MAC address Setup packet filters Set the DTIM Beacon interval to control client power saving. Get any network statistics Run any RG diagnostics Force a modem connect and disconnect Force a DHCP lease release / renew
THE SHORT ANSWER-----------------------------------------
The short of it is,,,, Access points can't take to each other, all they can do is interfer with each other...
If you load the Karlnet Bins in the access points you can turn two of them into a Wireless Bridge, but not in the virgin configuration.
The Karlnet Bins can be purchased from winncom for about $100.00 for each device

So,, you have got two access points that won't take to each other, but could talk to a client device IE: wireless card, minipci radio, etc.
