Association Problem

Fri Apr 21, 2006 7:59 pm

I am having problem associating with Mikrotic AP using the setup described below.

I am configuring Mikrotik to act as a client bridge(station) on wlan2 and AP bridge (ap_bridge) on wlan1.

The connection to ISP uses 19dBi Panel Antena RB/2019 while local connection AP uses 7.4dBi omni.

There is no problem with the connetion to ISP. I can ping my gateway to the ISP and several other Servers right at the ISP. But the problem is that client bridges to the configured AP cannot asociate. When using Senao to talk to the AP, the status shows "authenticated" as opposed to normal "associated" tatus. With this "auntheticated" status, there is nothing I can do.

I am very sure that I am using the right WEP Key.

Any advise.

Do you set mode=station to bridge ?

The one set mode=station talks to ISP Access Point and this is wlan2 interface. The other interface wlan1 is configured as AP to talk to the LAN.
