Please...! Its urgent. IP routing setup is not working

Hello there, Please help to fix my problem. My setup is given below:

GW(MT1)<---bridge--->(MT2)[wlan1]<---bridge--->[wlan1](MT3)[wlan2(AP)]----<client(CPE)-PC>
(10.0.0.1/24) <---------->(10.0.0.2/24)<---------> (10.0.0.3/24)--/--(0.0.0.1)--->(0.0.0.10)

My problem is that i am able to ping the GW(MT1) from MT3's wlan1, but not accessing GW(MT1) from MT3's wlan2. I don't want to bridge wlan1 & wlan2 of MT3 and want to separate bridged network from wlan2 network. I have tried to route the packets at MT3's wlan2 interface, but no luck to ping MT1 from MT3 's wlan2 and associated client PC. My ip route scheme at MT3 is as below:

ip route:
dst-address: 10.0.0.0/24
gateway: 10.0.0.3
interface: wlan1
pref source: 10.0.0.3

Any help to fix this problem will be appreciated greatly. Thanks.

Add a static route to network 0.0.0.0/24 on GW(MT1)
/ip route
add dst-address=0.0.0.0/24 gateway=10.0.0.3 distance=1 disabled=no

Thanks for your ip-route config. But I'm afraid to say that this didn't work for me. I'm still unable to ping GW(MT1) from MT3's wlan2 interface and its associated client PC. Any further help will be appreciated.

avoid using 0.0.0.0/24 network - use 192.168.x.0/24 or 172.16-31.x.0/24 or 10.x.x.0/24 networks

then you need 2 routes - one route to the remote network, other back, currently i do not see any routes back.

okay! i have modified my network and new setup is as below:

GW(MT1)<---bridge--->(MT2)[wlan1]<---bridge--->[wlan1](MT3)[wlan2(AP)]----<client(CPE)-PC>
(10.254.x.1/24) <---------->(10.254.x.2/24)<---------> (10.254.x.3/24)--/--(10.x.x.1)--->(10.x.x.10)

ip route:
dst-address: 10.254.x.0/24
gateway: 10.254.254.3
interface: wlan1
pref source: 10.254.254.3

Still not getting ping access to GW(MT1), even not accessing MT2 from MT3's wlan2 and Client PC. Please provide complete correct routing scheme for this network if I'm missing something to route packets between routers. I really appreciate this help.
