setting up my dd wrt v24 as a client bridge

I always start by trying to connect to the base router as a client first (unsuccessfully). I tried the same hardware with the same configuration on another satellite connection(same isp)and it works.īetween tries I have done every combination of Hard reboots, reboots, reconfiguration. However trying to connect using any router in any configuration from client to client bridge to repeater or repeater bridge results in a connection without internet access. With any combination of base router / software a laptop with a wifi adaptor can successfully connect and access the web. WRT54g v5.5, WRT150n and buffalo whr-hp-g54 all running dd-wrt special from V24 rc4 to v24 sp1. Satellite ISP, original base router WRK54G (stock linksys software), also tried base routers. It is a business location that needs 2 hops to provide internet to a float house residence utilized by employees.ĬONFIGURATION. I know all these combinations of ISP/hdw/software work because I have them running successfully.Ĭurrently I have spent a day plus unsuccessfully trying to get a new installation running. Software used ranges from dd-wrt special mini-micro-std V24RC4 (units not yet updated) to currently using the special version std V24 SP1. Most systems utilize WRT54g's, WHR-HP-G54's or WRT150N's. I have some systems running reliably with up to 3 hops using repeater or repeater bridge mode. We have about 12 satellite systems installed with most having wifi networks utilizing the dd-wrt software. Our only internet access is via a canadian satellite service called xplornet. I live in a remote community on the west coast of canada about halfway up to alaska. Posted: Sun 20:43 Post subject: I'm stumped - suggestions?Ī little background.
