wireless bridging between MT-s and interfaces.

Hello.

I am trying to make the following setup:
		   Internet
--------------|----------------------
|             \ether2=81.71.144.23  |
|                                   |
| MikroTik1							    |
| pppoe server=10.1.1.1				 |
|									        |
|			    /wlan1=10.1.1.2       |
--------------|----------------------
              .AP Bridge, SSID=Main
              .
              .
              .5GHz-Turbo
              .
              .
              .Station, SSID=Main
--------------|------------------------------------------------------
|			     \wlan2=10.1.1.3										
|																	
| MikroTik2															
|																	
|             /wlan1=10.1.1.4					    /ether2=10.1.1.5	
--------------|---------------------------------|--------------------
              .AP Bridge, SSID=AP				   |
              .									      \ Computer X
              .
              .2.4GHz-B/G
              .
              .
              .Station
--------------|----------------------
|             \wireless 			   |
| Computer 1,2,3... etc				 |
|									        |
-------------------------------------
How to make MikroTik2 router to behave as a transparent bridge between
MikroTik1 and computers? It has to be transparent bridge, because I have
pppoe server and dhcp on the MikroTik1.

In other words, all of the computers connected to MirkoTik 2, either by
wireless or directly on the ethernet, have to see the 10.1.1.1 pppoe
server, and to think they have pure, non-routed ethernet connection to it.

I have had set (and checked) pppoe and dhcp, by directly connecting to
MikroTik1 , thru wireless, and that parts work fine. The part that does
not work fine is the MikroTik2, and any and all ways I tried to set
it up as a bridge didn't work.

PPPoE server on MikroTik1 has address 10.1.1.1
and DHCP gives out addresses in the pool 10.1.1.10 - 10.1.1.250 .

Any ideas on how i could do this?

Thank you in advance,

Ivan Knezevic

Use WDS or use a EoIP tunnel, there is some info in the manual about this and on the Wiki

WDS should be better in your scenario, here is example:
