1310 AP in Bridge mode.

I have a 1300 AP that is in Bridge mode. I can always ping the access point, no network connectivity issue to AP. The issue that I'm having is the Printer connected to the AP. When I ping the printer from my laptop it will time out. If I log into the AP send a ping to the printer it will work. Once the ping sent from the AP it will start pinging from laptop as well. I have tried another printer it does the same thing. I have also manualy set the duplex to full. That did not help either. So basically I can't ping the printer unitl I start up a ping from the AP that it is connected to first. Just wondering if anyone else has ever ran into this.

You might be loosing the arp entry... the printer might not be responding back so the arp will timeout. You can try to create a static arp entry on your layer 3.
Thanks,
Scott

Aironet 1310 to dot11 Bridge?

Is there a way to create a bridge between a Linksys WAP54GPE and a Cisco 1310?
Linksys states Bridge and Repeater are only available with other Lonksys products. But the Aironet 1310 offers the universal workgroup bridge mode. Does this work?
As well i am looking for a WiFi network monitor (show available networks and signal ratio) for the 1310.
Thank you for your suggestions!
Bert

That is the major difference between home equipment and Enterprise equipment. Even the the ap's Cisco sells allows you to configure the device in different modes. If you are looking at Linksys products, then you have to buy a device specific to your needs.

How do I configure my Airport Extreme to work in Bridge Mode and provide specific IP addresses to clients

My Airport Extreme is working with an Airport Express to wirelessly extend my wireless network. Both Airports are configured in Bridge Mode per the instructions I found on Apple's support site. I want to assign a specific DHCP address to a wireless camera that is in range of the Extreme, but I understand that the Extreme needs to be in DHCP Only mode to do this. But if I change the mode to DHCP Only, the Extreme will lose contact with the Express. How can I get both functions to work - wireless network extension and specific DHCP addresses?

Then what device is providing DHCP? Only once device per subnet should be the DHCP server. One should be DHCP and NAT and the other in Bridge mode for most home setups. The unit with DHCP and NAT should be the one connected to your cable or DSL and the other set in Bridge mode only extends your network.
On the wireless config page set whichever you're using to extend your network to "Extend a wireless network" and give it the details of the network to which you're attaching it.

How do I clean up my new FIOS connection? I just cahnged ISP Fios and they reqquired a router of thier own in front of my AirPort Extreme. Since then I have blinking yellow light on the AirPort and AirPort utility keeps promting for an edit. Suggests canging from NAT to "Bridge mode". Obviuosly U have some internet or this post would not go anywhere, my knowledge base is not enought to feel comfortable with changing the settings. Correctly editing can be tricky, so how do I make necessary changes?

How do I clean up my new FIOS connection?
The FIOS router needs to be in Bridge Mode to prevent the Double NAT error from occurring when two routers are both fighting with each other for control of the network.
Unfortunately, the likely problem from the FIOS side is that FIOS support will either tell you that their router cannot be configured to operate in Bridge Mode, or if it can, they will not tell you how to do it.
But, it could not hurt to check with FIOS to see if anything might have changed recently in this regard, so your first call would be to FIOS support.
If you cannot change the FIOS router to Bridge Mode, the alternate plan would be to change the AirPort Extreme to Bridge Mode. If you are using the Guest Network feature on the AirPort Extreme at this time, that feature will not work correctly when the AirPort is set up in Bridge Mode.

New Airport Extreme in Bridge mode -- some devices have no internet access

I just bought a new Airport Extreme as my old one which was probably 7 years old required restarting every day. My setup is as follows: DSL cable modem to Linksys Router (for a long set of convoluted reasons, I can't remove this layer) and then Airport Extreme. This is how I had it set up with my old one. The only difference is I recently started looking into using "Back to the Mac" on MobileMe and in order for it to work, I set my new Airport Extreme to Bridge mode due to dual NAT. I have an iMac, PC, MBP, MBA, iphone 4, AppleTV and ipad. All was working fine last night when I set it up. 24 hours later, for some odd reasons, I can't have my PC accessing the wireless network at the same time. If I did, it would knock my iMac off the network and says some other device is using the same IP address. For a while, only my iMac (my main computer) can access it and even my iphone can't. At this very moment, my iphone, imac and MBP all have access to the wireless network. My MBA and iPad has no internet connection. I've restarted Airport Extreme, Linksys, and modem more than once... If I switch back to "Use Public IP Address" instead of Bridge mode, everything works except for "Back to the Mac"... Help!

Hey Bob, Thanks...I have already repeated that multiple times yesterday and today but to no avail. I tried to get into the Linksys router control panel but unfortunately we can't remember the username and password (the router is not mine). The make things even more complicated, the router is actually part of the internet package provided by the ISP and they use a PPPoE to log in. Theoretically, we could do a hard reset but the problem is the ISP will not release the PPPoE information unless we sign a long and complicated form saying we want to bypass their Linksys router. We can do that but this process will take days and weeks... Our ISP confirmed that the Linksys router is set to max out at 5 DHCP but we can only connect 3 machines at a time. They are coming out to take a look tomorrow but in the meantime I have reset the Airport Extreme to "Distribute a Public IP Address" mode which will allow access to all computers/devices. What's even more weird is that if I did the Bridge mode, it messes up the Linksys router's own network as well. We can't even just sign into that network... Any ideas why?

Access to Time Capsule in Bridge Mode from outside of the network

I have a Time Capsule with an external hard drive set up in bridge mode on my home network. The main router and DHCP server is an Actiontec MI424, and is specific to my ISP (Verizon, required for TV Guide info from Fios) so the Time Capsule's AirPort can't be used as the primary. I need to access the external hard drive from outside my network (I.E. the internet), but I'm having trouble figuring out which ports are required for Sharepoint to work.
So far I've forwarded 548, but I get an error "-36" when I try to connect from the outside. It works fine on the inside. Any suggestions?
Thanks, JSD

The Express units can extend wireless on the TC or each other.. but they cannot extend wireless on the Asus anyway..
So the setup is Asus--TC (that has to be ethernet) The TC in bridge mode.
Then TC -- express can be done by ethernet in roaming mode as bob listed above or extend wireless.
I am guessing.. what model are the express units.. they are older Gen1 N model ??
IMHO the TC is simply no longer viable.. replace it with one express as the AP and extend it with the other Express.. see if that works better.
But I would be trying to use the wireless just from the AC66U.
I would also force the Asus back to 20mhz on the 2.4ghz band.. so you can provide adequate channel separation.. 40mhz wireless on 2.4ghz works poorly anyway because you have too much wifi .. there is very limited number of non-overlapping channels.. ie 3. 11, 6 and 1.

Why do I lose internet connection when I put airport extreme into bridge mode to correct Double NAT issue

I reset my airport extreme router the other day because I was too lazy to reset the password on my private network.
I have been reading the advice found on apple support communities and wide web, but the solutions do not solve any problems and often create new ones.
I'm regretting because everything was working just fine.
But I remember having this double nat error when I first set it up a few months back, but now I cannot resolve it.
I would live with the yellow light, but it seems that this double nat error is preventing my playstation 3 from connecting to the airport extreme.
When I put the aiport extreme into bridge mode, I loose all my wireless networks, even when I reboot the airport extreme and the modem.
I try rebooting the modem, then the airport. and vice versa. No internet.
I switch back to NAT/DCHP and the internet works fine on apple devices, but not the playstation 3, and I have the 1 Double NAT error.
I have a plain stock Motorolla modem and I can dial in and see settings (although nothing about NAT). I didn't see where to see them.
I tried setting the DHCP only but it said it didn't like the settings. is there a stock range i could be using?

I have a plain stock Motorolla modem and I can dial in and see settings (although nothing about NAT). I didn't see where to see them.
Exact model .. motorola make adsl, cable and probably wireless modems.. with some modems and some modem router.. we need exact info. What kind of broadband do you have?
I would note.. some of the motorola cable modems seem to have issues with the apple routers. If you are about due to change modems.. now is a good time.. not another motorola.
If the modem is a straight cable modem, the AE must be in router mode.. but you need to power down the cable modem. maybe for 20min so the new router can pick up the IP address.
You cannot use DHCP alone.. the ISP do not give you a block of IP addresses.
You cannot use bridge with a pure modem.. you will find it works.. but only to one device.
The only reason you get double NAT is the failure to pick up the public IP.
Give the info required..
If you have trouble, I need the actual IP of the modem. the actual IP of the AE WAN port when plugged in. Screenshots are good.

Can a single Access Point support both bridge mode and Access Point mode at the same time

Hi Guys
Does anyone know which access point can work in both bridge mode and AP mode ?
Cheers

Well what are you trying to cover. If its really a large outdoor area, then look at the mesh AP. Those require a WLC. Autonomous or stand alone ap can perform bridging on one radio and client access on another. You can also look at AP that support indoor mesh that also controlled by a wlc. If your putting APs outdoors, then look at the outdoor mesh.

How do I set up time capsule to just backup multiple macs on a wireless network without using the TC in the bridge mode?

I have an AT&T modem that serves as our home wireless network. I wanted to backup up our computer data so I got a time capsule to back up our three household MACs. After purchase, I found how that I needed to put the exising modem in "bridge mode" so the Time capsule would establish the network. Four frustrating hours later talking to 3 different people at Yahoo, I got the **** thing established. It worked fine for 4 months - then a power failure forced me to repeat the process again. I had to reestablish everything and it took another 4 hours. After 6 months, another power failure forced me to go through the entire process again. Now, of course, Yahoo is charging a fee to help you establish the TC as the network if you have one of their modems - and to make things interesting, they really don't understand MACs. After 5 hours, in frustration, I gave up and asked the Yahoo folks to just put their modem back in as the network hub and I unplugged the Time Capsule. Now after 3 months of looking at an expensive Time Capsule and searching the internet for help, I figured I try the Apple help network,
I just want to backup the data on my MACS. I have a network in the house that works just fine. How do I configure the TC to work as a backup on a wireless network? It seems like it should be simple, but it isn't. Can anybody help?

I have no idea about the modem and bridge mode (I don't do networking -- hopefully Bob Timmons, Tesserax, or one of the other networking gurus will drop in and address that).
But . . . you should be able to back up to the TC as long as it's on your network and recognized by your Macs. I think being in bridge mode means it will be rather slow, but it should work. Until/unless we hear otherwise, you might want to see #Q1 in Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule.

I live in an apartment with supplied internet. I have wireless network with no password. I have a wall outlet that I can plug into. When I plug in my TC I get a double NAT error. I try bridge mode, but I can't get the internet to work.

Can I get an explanation of what bridge mode is?
Can I get suggestions on what I should do to use the TC as a wireless device to spread the same wireless device my apartment is broadcasting?
Can I get a suggestion on how to use the TC as a different wireless device with it's own password without access to the cable modem. I only have access to a wall port.
I own many apple devices, iMac mid-2011, Macbook Air 2013, 2 ipads, and 2 iphones for the family, and Apple TV.
I want all my devices to be on a password related internet but the double nat on my TC makes weird things happen and slow. I try bridge mode but the internet doesn't work.
I hope I have described this situation clearly enough.
Thanks

I want all my devices to be on a password related internet but the double nat on my TC makes weird things happen and slow. I try bridge mode but the internet doesn't work.
You building supplied internet is a cheap service that is without proper routable addresses..
Therefore to use more than one IP you MUST have double NAT.. sorry there is no choice..
Slow that is because you are sharing internet with every other person in the building.. get your own broadband service.
Bridge will not work.. it cannot work because the building only has private IP addressing. And they only give you a single address.
You can put a password on the wireless.. go to the airport utility and put in a password.
Other than that I don't understand what password you expect.
Can I get an explanation of what bridge mode is?
No NAT.. means the TC becomes a dumb Wireless AP and switch.. works fine with a cable modem router.. or any broadband router but useless with your building system.
Can I get suggestions on what I should do to use the TC as a wireless device to spread the same wireless device my apartment is broadcasting?
Double NAT, and set your own wireless names. There is no alternative.. sorry.

How do I set up OpenDNS to work with my Time Capsule running 7.7.3 in Bridge Mode?

How do I set up OpenDNS to work with my Time Capsule running 7.7.3 in Bridge Mode?

Set up your "main" router to use the OpenDNS servers, and the Time Capsule will automatically pick up those settings. No configuration is needed on the Time Capsule.

How can I set up a guest access point with a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme? I am using a Telus router with the Time Capsule used as a wireless access point (bridge mode). I don't want the guest access point to have access to my network.

How can I set up a guest access point with a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme? I am using a Telus router with the Time Capsule used as a wireless access point (bridge mode). I don't want the guest access point to have access to my network.

The Guest Network function of the Time Capsule and AirPort Extreme cannot be enabled when the device is in Bridge Mode. Unfortunately, with another router...the Telus...upstream on your network, Bridge Mode is indicated as the correct setting for all other routers on the network.
If you can replace the Telus gateway with a simple modem (that performs no routing functions), you should be able to configure either the Time Capsule or the AirPort Extreme....whichever is connected to the modem....to provide a Guest Network.

Is it possible for SA540 to work in transparent bridge mode?

Hi all,
I've been considering to use a Cisco SA540 in an industrial project; please consider Scenario 1 and 2 files attached (bear with me - I'm an engineer, not an artist).
All networks mentioned in both scenarios are regular and well known Ethernet TCP/IP networks. The Corporate Network and Automation Network (including the DMZ) are in different subnets. The Corporate Network is the biggest one, similar to any company's corporate network you all know. The Automation Network exists for the purpose of operating and maintaining the industry process; it's smaller but highly critical. Only specific staff (automation staff and dedicated operators) have access to it. Although many devices and networks in the Automation Network are industry specific - not so well known, a small segment of it is plain Ethernet TCP/IP, as I've already stated. The Automation Network has a DMZ, where we lay servers that provide industry process information for the Corporate Network.
Scenario 2 may look at a first glance the best option, since it's simpler, doesn't require another router and benefits from Cisco SA540 support for both a LAN and a DMZ. The problem with Scenario 2 is the following:
Since both networks are maintained by different teams under different management, TI staff would have absolute control over the Cisco SA540. This way automation staff could not grant that the Automation Network is really protected from the Corporate Network.
TI staff may even demand for another device to interface with the Automation Network - which is not Cisco SA540, since they rule everything that lives in the Corporate Network. In this case, I have my hands tied!
Scenario 1 solves the above problems. Since automation would have absolute control over the Cisco SA540, they could grant security for the Automation Network (except for DMZ, but that's the reason why it is called a DMZ!). TI staff could ask for any router they prefer to interface with the DMZ, I would never mind about it.
Considering the above, I will probably be forced to adopt Scenario 1 instead of Scenario 2. So here comes my question: is it possible for Cisco SA540 to work with the same subnet for both WAN and LAN interfaces (in Scenario 1, no DMZ interface is required)? In other words, is it possible for Cisco SA540 to work in transparent bridge mode? I've been through all of the Cisco SA540 Administration Manual and as far as I could understand, routing is not an option - it is demanding.
Although I understand I could adopt Scenario 1 and still have different subnets for DMZ and the rest of the Automation Network by connecting the DMZ to the WAN interface and the rest of the Automation Network to the LAN interface in the Cisco SA540, I believe it's not worth the effort. The Automation Network is so small and we do all we can to keep it as simple as possible.

Adriano, there is a RV042G, which supports the gig ports and a 800 mbps nat throughput. Here is the datasheet
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/routers/ps10907/ps9923/ps12262/data_sheet_c78-706724.html
If you are using a DSL connection, the SRP527/547 models may be an alternative. These models support the RFC 1483 Bridges EOA Please note the SRP547 should be 10/100/1000. Also note the SRP521/541 are Fast Ethernet units and they do differ from the SRP527/547. The main selling point of these devices are the FXS/FXO ports. So this may also be a bit of an "unfocused" solution. But it's worth throwing the idea out there!

Port forwarding but can only connect to wifi in Bridge Mode

Hi
Our ISP is TalkTalk and we use their Fibre service which connects through a BT Open Reach Modem. The TalkTalk router seemed to causing drop outs in wifi on my macbook pro so I bought an Airport Time Capsule for the wifi router and to back up my mac.
We aren't issued with PPPoE details and the advice from the TalkTalk community was to connect with the Router in Bridge Mode. This has worked a treat with the various Apple and non Apple items we have in out house except one.
We have security cameras which we control through a Windows laptop and can view one out phones. To make this happen we have to set up port forwarding. However, we can't do this as it's in Bridge Mode (as far as I understand).
I'm afraid my knowledge of these things is very basic so I'm hoping that someone will have an easy answer to this. Anyone got any advice on how I can make this pretty white box do its stuff please?
Thanks in advance!

HT2497 I just purchased the 2TB TC and set it up on bridge mode to my att verse which is connected via ethernet cable. The TC is continually blinking amber and an error message states that a wireless network cannot be found but the uverse is functioning

I just purchased the 2TB TC and set it up on bridge mode to my att verse which is connected via ethernet cable. The TC is continually blinking amber and an error message states that a wireless network cannot be found but the uverse is functioning great. The network name I assigned to the TC is also not appearing among available networks. How do I remedy this, please?

What OS on the computer you are using to setup the TC?
Did you turn on ipv6 for wireless to link-local... this is essential for network access now??
Try power cycling the network.. start up in correct order.. uverse.. 2min wait.. TC.. 2min wait.. computer.
No luck factory reset and start over. Use ethernet cable as well to the computer to help it.
No luck I can show you manual method.

1310 AP in Bridge mode.
