I have a microserver, HTPC, Desktop, wireless AP connected to a switch. These can all talk to each other sharing files and performing backups (except for the desktop which is behaving really strangley)
There is a wireless laptop which is sucessfully connecting to the wireless AP sharing files and performing a backup to the server.
The problem is that i can not get this network of computers to communicate with the wireless router that is connected to the modem/internet.
What i have done on the router:
changed the channel to 11, changed the DCHP range to be .101-200
the router is still set on 'routing' in mode, the only other option is bridge.. does this mean the router cannot do what i want?
On the WAP i have
changed the channel to 11
disabled DHCP
given the WAP an IP address not in the DCHP range of the router (.100)
created a wireless bridge with default name, MAC address as of the wireless router
selected wireless point to multi point bridge (the other option is repeater without client association)
there are options in the wireless bridge menu to change the profile name, security, and change
