setting up my dd wrt v24 as a client bridge

Now, i would be happy to sacrifice the Repeater functionality of the device if i could gain the Bridge functionality of the device. Network Diagnostics says to match the options on the router with those of the adapter card of the computer, however, i am using the same settings for transmitting the data as the main router to begin with. I also receive the SSID of the repeater on another laptop at my workstation, but i am unable to connect. However, after fallowing the tutorial several times, and doing the 30/30/30 reset between each try, i had always either encountered the router's WAN address as either 0.0.0.0 or as the WAN was disabled, in either case, i was unable to use the Bridge and Repeater functions.Īlthough, when i sacrifice the Bridge option, the device gets a WAN address, and allows me to gain internet access from the computer i had hard-wired into the router to configure everything. I have a Cisco E1000 v1.0 router, and downloaded the firmware for such from the following site: Īfter typing in Cisco and selecting my router, i had the firmware, which i did successfully update, and begin using. This is all using a non-standard firmware for the router, as the router's default firmware does not offer these options. That particular post only provided a simple tutorial, and as I always do, i go look at more research. Well, I was around on the internet, and was reading on a blog post about a router that was converted to a wireless network bridge, and can be used as a repeater. My previous post about the Addtron switch is still in need of answers. (I have learned that several servers running at the same time generate quite a bit of noise and must be moved somewhere convenient for that noise).

Ok, so i have two different routers to use as bridge/repeaters to the network within my residence.
