Port forwardin with Router and wireless ethernet bridge
Hi guys
I have a wireless network at home, with: Cable Modem --- Router/Acess Pont (Linksys WRT54GL)--- WET11 Linksys Ethernet Bridge. The router connects directly to my pc and spreads the internet around the home. In my pc I can port forward with no problem at all. In my 2 laptops that connected to the router wireless I can also port forward. But another pc witch connects via the Wireless-B (ethernet bridge) I simply cant. Router/Acess Point - 192.168.1.1 DHCP Range - 50 Starting IP 192.168.1.100 ---- End 192.168.1.149 Pc connected directly to the router 192.168.1.100 The 2 Laptos are in DHCP mode, they usually have ip´s 192.168.1.101 and 192.168.1.102 The Ethernet Bridge is configured out ot the DHCP range as read it should (all tho I tryed with an Ip in the DHCP range still doesnt work), and has the Ip 192.168.1.255---- and the gateway is 192.168.1.1. In the pc I have connected via ethernet bridge I have acess to the internet, but port forwardin is not being done. I´m using WEP encryption... as this is the only possibility for the ethernet bridge. Any advise on how to procede? Thx in advance PG Last edited by pedroguerreiro5 : 12-14-2007 at 03:03 AM. |

Re: Port forwardin with Router and wireless ethernet bridge
The bridge should be transparent. Have you taken the bridge out of the equation to see if it's really the bridge that is the issue?

Thanks for the reply No i didnt take the bridge out of the equation, because in order to do this I have to run about 30m of cable. So for sure the bridge is not on the way, has it should be transparent like you say... I thought I was doing something wrong, in config... will try to get the cable in order to test. Once again thanks

Re: Port forwardin with Router and wireless ethernet bridge
I'd try the cable, it's always a useful test. You do realize that you can pick up the system and move it closer, just for a test.
