after configuring i changed the setting to automatically obtain the ipaddres. i was not getting correct ipaddres . 192.168.0.xxx. i followed the document as it is but no luck
Use different SSID and when using 2.4G as repeater bridge, don't set 5G as repeater bridge at the same time but rather set it in AP mode with another different SSID. No virtual interface for 5G of course. Try and see if it works or not.
Too bad! May be you should try other earlier build if you haven't done so and see if it makes a difference.
BTW, have you tried changing the wireless mode instead of mixed to N only for both the main and the repeater router.
I suppose you can see and join the dd-wrt_vap ssid and the problem is that your wireless client can't obtain an IP from your main router's DHCP. Am I right? What IP does it has? Have you tried reboot your wireless client and see if it can then get an IP address? What if you statically set the IP of the wireless client, can it go to the Internet?
One more thing, check if the repeater router is actually connected to the main router by checking status - wireless on the repeater router. Also check if the main router SSID and repeater SSID are operating at the same frequency. Use an Android phone with Wi-Fi analyzer app.
Well, different build give you different result and unfortunately both are not perfect. Unless someone chime in and tell you which build is best for repeater bridge, I am afraid you may have to continue to try other builds. May be a build in between the two you have tried. I guess you probably prefer repeater bridge more than repeater mode but I think may be you should also try repeater mode and see how it works.
I want to use ethernet ports to connect some device. so i am trying repeater bridge. i not tech guy. can i use repeater mode to connect ethernet.
wifi is working file.
my main router is downstair and dd-wrt is upstairs. when i come upstairs my phone connects to upstairs router and it works fine. i have issue with connnect to ethernet.
What is use of virtual interface. is that used to connect to the ethernet or it is wifi?
In that case, client bridge mode will also work for you if that mode is available and you don't need virtual interface as that is for setting up a repeater wifi. Hope it works!
