|
Hello, I have spent two days experimenting and reading the Wiki, and I now must ask for help...
Device: Ubiquiti Nanostation 2
Firmware: DD-WRT V24-sp2 (03/25/13) std - build 21061
CPU: Atheros AR2315
Trying to set this up as a wireless repeater bridge. I have followed the instructions at [http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Repeater_Bridge] remembering the Atheros specific part.
Client Bridge (routed) logs on to primary router and works fine to eth0.
As soon as I add a Wireless Virtual Interface NS2 drops connection to the primary router, the ath0 up time gets to 2 seconds then resets to zero continuously.
I have tried this scenario with No Encription, WPA-TKIP, WPA2-AES and WEP 64, the result is exactly the same, all works fine until I add the VAP.
Probably need to do some more diagnostics, but don't know what to try. .var/log/messages is empty and dmesg provides nothing.
I have paid for and installed the activation.
Help please. Kind regards Adrian. |

Bump.
As far as I can see, this software is not fit for purpose on the NS2 to create a repeater bridge.
When payment is required for an activation key I would expect some support or help with further diagnostics.
I have run out of things to try. This was part of a wireless solution for a customer, if I can't get DD-WRT to work I will have to recover the activation fee. |
