PTP Wireless Help

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone could help me urgently. I'm stuck up a tower at the moment, logged through my cellphone.

We have installed a new RouterBoard ( v4.5 on RB433AH ) this is the access point

At the other end, where I am, we have a Routerboard ( v3.10 RB433 ) which is the bridge.

The access point has a Atheros 11N ( RB2H I think ? ) in it, while this end has a Wireless (Atheros AR5413) in it.

I can get them to connect to each other, but for the life of me can't get any sort of traffic though. I certainly can't ping to the other end.

Could this be wireless, or a routing problem ?

The configs of each are

Flags: X - disabled, R - running
0 R name="Bottom" mtu=1500 mac-address=00:0C:42:64:49:AF arp=enabled
interface-type=Atheros 11N mode=ap-bridge ssid="TEST" frequency=5200
band=5ghz scan-list=default wds-mode=disabled wds-default-bridge=none
wds-ignore-ssid=no default-authentication=yes default-forwarding=yes
default-ap-tx-limit=0 default-client-tx-limit=0 hide-ssid=no
security-profile=default compression=no


Remote Site

Flags: X - disabled, R - running
0 R name="Bottom" mtu=1500 mac-address=00:0C:42:26:AB:30 arp=enabled
interface-type=Atheros AR5413 mode=station ssid="TEST" frequency=5200
band=5ghz scan-list=default antenna-mode=ant-a wds-mode=disabled
wds-default-bridge=none wds-ignore-ssid=no default-authentication=yes
default-forwarding=yes default-ap-tx-limit=0
default-client-tx-limit=0 hide-ssid=no security-profile=default
compression=no

Could anyone please help ?

Thanks

If you are using bridge on client you MUST use station-pseudobridge to avoid such problem.

Thanks for your reply. I fixed it by selecting station-wds. Thanks for the link also.

Cheers.
