Access Point is blocking data

uselessllama · 12-11-2008, 02:11 PM

I just setup a second AP in my network to expand the wireless coverage.

The AP is setup as follows:

Linksys Wireless Acess Point - G
IP: 192.168.0.247
DNS: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.0.1

I'm using the wireless connection to power an internal server that's used for inventory management.
The servers name is S109CDEC, and it's located at 192.168.0.10.

I'm powering it with PoE, and thats working fine. When I pull the ethernet cord from the PoE and plug it into a laptop I can access the local server I have running perfectly. However, once I connect wirelessly via the AP, I can resolve the server name "S109CDEC" into the IP address, but the pings receive no response for a 100% data loss.

The PoE is about 600 feet from the main router, and the AP is only 20 feet from the PoE.

Any solutions?
