Bridges Wireless - AP 1310

Hi,
I'm setting up a Wireless Bridge 1310 with two APs. The Root Bridge is working fine, but the Non-root Bridge is not working, the radio 0 is not UP (It is in reset mode), bellow the settings of APs and logs Non-root Bridge.

Make sure to double checlk the cables connecting the Antennas to your Bridges if you have -R version of the 1310 bridges.
Your issue is very simple , non-root cannot detect the presence of the root ( no 802.11 frames advertising the same configured SSID ) --> Accordingly keeps scanning indefintely on all the channels of a certain band.
When selecting the channel on root make sure that it is clean as well on the non-root side to allow the non-root to connect properly wihtout having the info sent by root distorted due to noise , interference or any other RF impairments on certain channel. So you can run the carrier busy test many times on both sites and select the clarest channel to proceed with after making sure that everything else such LOS, HW status ......etc is ok.

Wireless Bridge 1410 vs 1310

I am trying to design Video Surveillance Solutions for foot ball field. Here, we can not pull cable from cameras to MDF the building in Campus Environment. I am trying to incorporate Cisco bridges (Point to Multipoint Environment) in order carry data from cameras to MDF. I have attached diagram for your reference. For this solution I would like to have your advice as I am planning to deploy these bridges for the first time. I have some questions for you.
1.) I am planning to use Cisco 1410 bridges instead of 1310 bridges. Do you think Cisco 1310 series would be sufficient for my application? Please advice me on antenna selections on root and non-root bridges in case of 140 and also 1310. I would like to use external antenna specially omni for root bridge and sectoral antennas for non-root. Please advice me for the best selection.
2.) As Cisco bridging solution does not have LWAPP option. I was thinking of using WLSE for managing those bridges but I came to know that is on its EOL. Do we have any other option?
-Do we have to have separate appliance for WLSE? Can you advice me how should I order that? Please let me know how much bridges will be supported by WLSE (1 license)?
3.)I am thinking of using external antenna. I would like to use omnidirectional antenna for root bridge and sectoral antennas for non-root bridges. Please advice which antenna I should be using in case of 1410 and 1310 series.

I can understand your concern for the cost of the 1400 series, but the 1400 series is built for point-to-point links for up to 25 MILES!! Obviously less in cases of point-to-multipoint. The 1310 bridge can go a couple of miles as well, but the data rate is going to suffer at 2.4 GHz 'g' only. That's why I said to do some testing to verify you can get the data rates you need to support your application. The only time you actually want to use omni directional antennas with bridging are if you are creating a mesh or a repeater. For PtP to PtM, you would reduce your link budget, distance, and overall throughput by using omni directional antennas. The fact that we use the term 'point-to-point' tells you that you only want your signal to go from the root to the non-root and not elsewhere. Since we can't really contain wireless signals once they're in the air, it's up to engineers to design antennas for us that essentially cheat physics and shape the antenna pattern so that it is directional. Higher gain directional antennas will have a high 'front-to-back' ratio (F/B ratio) telling you that a certain percentage is going in front of the antenna, and a certain amount is going out the back. When the amount going out the front exceeds the amount going out the back, you begin to have a directional antenna. In addition, at larger distances, if you don't use directional antennas, it will be very difficult to align them and keep a stable connection due to the fade margin of the omni directional antennas. The bridges have a built in alignment mode with lights to help you achieve maximum throughput. When you align them, make very calculated, small changes. Don't move both sides, and don't move in both planes (horizontal, vertical). Keep your antennas pointed at one another using some binoculars or other pointing devices and get the best reading you can at the root after an initial setup. Then lock the root into place and go to the other side. Again, make calculated changes to vertical until you find the best, and then lock it down. Finish with sweeping horizontal until you get the best and lock it down. It may take you several iterations until you get it right. As for the non-root antennas, you don't want to mix antennas too much if you can avoid it, but in the case of point-to-multipoint, you've got it backwards. You want a larger angle on the root bridge, and high gain directional on the non-roots pointing back to the root. It is imperative that you know what the polarization is of each antenna (vertical vs. horizontal) and that you MATCH that polarization at both ends. Most antennas have this clearly labeled on the antenna itself, or it is specified in the user manual.
Good luck!

Bridging wireless AP - bridge-utils

Hi there,
Situation:
1. Free AP next to my home, signal weak, not everywhere accessable.
2. Laptop with wireless interface + Wireless USB-Dongle (good antenna, extended range) + Siemens SE361 WLAN Router
3. I connect with my USB-Dongle to the Free AP, I have set a wireless network with SE361 and connect to it with the internal wireless card of my laptop
This so far worked, but now I want to have internet access at the SE361-Network and I think I need to bridge both networks. I tried with bridge-utils but brctl addbr <mybridge> <mywlanif> gives me an error (can't add wlan0 to bridge br0: Operation not supported) so I think I can only bridge ethernet networks with it (adding eth0 instead of wlan0 works).
On google I only found stuff about a hardware bridge or how to bridge ethernet networks.
Now I need some help how I can get this working, cau you help me please?
Is bridging even the right thing to do in this case or can I forward the internetconection somehow else?

Here is a simple config example
Root                                                                           Non-Root
R(config)#dot11 ssid test                             n-R(config)#dot11 ssid test
                #authentication open                    n-R(config)#authentication open
               #infrastructure-ssid                       n-R(config)#infrastructure-ssid
               #exit                                                                  #exit
R(config)#int d0                                          n-R(config)#int d0
               # ssid test                                                  #ssid test
                #statio-role root bridge wireless-client          #station-role non-root bridge wireless-client
                #no shut                                                   #no shut
For BVI interfaces you can assign either static or dynamic IP address
But it is highly recommended to have static ip for better management.

Point to point wireless using 1310 and 1231 on each site

Hi,
I have an implementation right now with wireless point to point bridging connection. I installed a 1310 with 24 dBi external antenna on one site and a 1231 AP/bridge with 24 dBi antenna on the other site. Has anyone of you tried this set-up. I have no problem with the connection and pinging is ok. However when I tested the throughput I only got 2Mbps in which the distance between the two sites is only 2 kms. I am hoping to have a throughput about 20 Mbps and up.

When you configure the AP radio, you must consider the type of clients that are present in the wireless network. If the AP has an 802.11g radio and the WLAN has only 802.11g clients, you can set one or more data rates to Basic and all other data rates to Enabled However, if you have a mixed environment of both 802.11b and 802.11g clients in a WLAN network, you must ensure that only the rates that 802.11b supports are set to Basic (or Require in GUI). If data rates that the 802.11b radio does not support (such as 12 Mbps) are set to Basic on the AP radio, the 802.11b clients are not able to associate to the AP.
Alternatively, you can configure the AP radio to select data rates on the basis of range or throughput. When you configure the AP radio to select data rates for range, the AP sets the lowest data rate to Basic and the other rates to Enabled. In this way, the AP can cover a wider area. However, the data rate comes down as the distance from the AP to the client increases. If you configure the AP radio for throughput, the AP sets all data rates to Basic. This configuration ensures a consistent throughput throughout the coverage area.

VLAN on bridged wireless

I have two wireless bridge 1410s to connect two building A and B
building A (Bridge1)
management VLAN100, 192.168.100/24
building B (bridge2)
management VLAN200, 192.168.200/24
I plan to setup VLAN10 for the bridge AP, so VLAN10 at Building A, IP will be 192.168.10.1/?? (can this mask be 30?), VLAN10 at building B, 192.168.10.2/??
so my question
can bridge1 has only one management IP from 192.168.100/24 in same time doing bridge for VLAN10? can bridge2 has only one managmenet IP from 192.168.200/24 in same time doing bridge for VLAN10? if not, do I have to assign management IP for both bridge in 192.168.10.0 network? so the mask can be /29 to support 6 IPs, one ip for VLAN10 at building A, one ip for VLAN10 at building B, one IP for bridge1, one IP for bridge2?
my intention to assign one management IP from local management VLAN, so this IP is local significant, and AP just doing a pure bridge for VLAN10, and AP doesn't have any IP over this VLAN10
thanks

thanks for your reply, i did not quite get your answer yet, and that is why i tried to put more details on more original question
so for my case, can bridge1 being part of management VLAN of building A? and bridge2 part of managemenet VLAN of buildingB? so they don't share same common managemenet vlan
if they can not, meant i need create a common vlan 10, i guess i need /29 mask to support enough IP addr, right?

Bridging wireless and wired network interfaces

Hi,
Is it possible to "bridge" the airport and ethernet network interfaces on a macbook pro using Leopard (10.5.7) ? I do not mean Internet connection sharing. That results in NAT.
I recently got a desktop in my room which doesn't have a WiFi interface. I wish to connect its wired interfaced to my mbp's wired interface and give it access to the wireless network my mbp is on. To do this I would need to bridge the wireless and wired interfaces on my mbp. All the results I find online to do this only talk about Internet Connection Sharing ..
thanks,
regards,
Puneet

You can turn on IP Forwarding to achieve most of what you're after:
sudo sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1
This will have the Mac forward packets from one interface to the other without NAT.
However you still need to use separate subnets, and may need to play with routing to get everyone to talk to each other.

Bridged Wireless Blocks TCP Port 9100?

On one of my networked computers, HP "Solutions Center" driver says HP 6310xi networked printer is connected, shows detail status & will print the HP diagnostic report direct to printer. Windows 7 shows printer on network map, & gives detailed status & setup info from printer internal data via IE through printer's IP address page (192.168.1.100); i.e. I can ping it. However, Win 7 printer control panel shows printer as "offline" on printers list & just ques up print requests. Troubleshooting gives error message "turn power on printer". Other networked PCs print OK. Bad computer is on a separate subnet of my home network, with a LinkSys wireless bridge WET610n connection, & printer is on another wireless LinkSys WET610n subnet. My network is totally LinkSys N, with a WRT 610n as main hub. All other network functions work for all other devices on the network, including DirecTV DVR receivers & Wii console!! I have moved the printer to the other subnet, & the problem is now mirrored by the computer on the remote subnet. It is not a firewall problem, but appears that the variables are the 2 wireless bridges that seem to conspire to block TCP port 9100 when in series. A single WET610n between the printer & a computer allows printing, proven by my roaming wireless laptop having access through the WET610n via the central wireless router. Very stange!! CTH

If I understand correctly, you have a Linksys WRT610N as your main wireless-router with two satellite Linksys WET610N configured as Ethernet bridges -- right?
You also have this setup:
Win7 PC -> WET610N -> WRT610N -> WET610N -> Officejet 6310
If I got this right, then the issue is probably the transit delay between the Win7 PC and the Officejet confusing HP's Solution Center.
I think you have two options:
1) Connect the Win7 PC directly to the WRT610N or connect the Officejet 6310 directly to the WRT610
2) Manually install the printer.
Let's try a manual installation:
1. Click >> Start >> Control panel >> Printers.
3. Click the Add a printer
3. Select Local printer
4. Select Create a new port and select Standard TCP/IP Port and click Next button.
5. Under Device type, select TCP/IP Device. Under Hostname or IP address, enter the printer's host name (found on the printer's network configuration report the generated above). Click Next.
If you get a message about Additional Port Information Required, then the printer was not found using the host name. You can go back and retry or using the printer's IP address instead of the host name.
6. Select Hewlett-Packard from the list of manufacturers and select and select your printer model. Click Next.
If your printer model was not listed, then select Have Disk, browse the HP CD that came with your printer and select the first file that starts with hp and ends with inf. Click Open then OK. Select your printer model. Click Next.
7. If you are asked, use the currently installed driver.
8. It will ask for the Printer name -- enter a new name or use the existing one. This will be the name of the printer that you select from other applications.
9. You may be asked to share the printer. Make a choice and click Next.
10. The Print Test Page box appears. Go ahead and print it.
11. Click Finish.
That should be it.

Time Capsule Bridge Wireless to Ethernet?

Hello,
I currently use my TC to wirelessly join a network -- it is not connected via ethernet to anything.
I'd like to use the ethernet ports on my TC as a wireless bridge, taking the wireless signal TC gets from joining a network and extending it to ethernet clients that don't have Airport cards.
This doesn't seem possible -- is there a way to do it? The "Bridge mode" seems to only work in WDS mode -- which I don't think is what I want. Does anybody know if this is possible?
Again, I do not want ethernet to wireless bridge, but the opposite, using my time capsule to join wifi, and then share it to any computer connected to TC's ethernet ports.
Help

Hello Little Rage. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Sorry, but what you are proposing will not work. You will need to either connect the TC to the other router by Ethernet or create a WDS between the two in order to enable the TC's LAN ports.

Bridging Wirelessly from Westell 9100EM to Netgear WRG614 - Possible?

HI Guys,
I have FIOS internet and TV,
I want to use my NetGear WRG 614 to create a seperate network at the bottom of the apartment, so that i can run my servers down there. The Westell is in the living room, and the servers are loud so i can't hook them up there.
Can i create a bridge so that the WRG614 and Westell would operate wirelessly on the same network ?
If not, any other suggestions?

Well, that particular unit has a wireless bridge mode on it, but I believe you would need to set it up to work with another Netgear device.   Here are a couple of approaches that I would consider using ...
1. Ethernet cable -- run and ethernet cable from one of the LAN interfaces on the WRG614 to one of the LAN interfaces on the Westell, disable the DHCP server on the WRG614, and make sure the IP address of the interface on the WRG614 is on the same subnet but different than the router (192.168.1.254 suggested).
2. Coax - Similar to option one, if you are cabled to the Westell via Coax from the ONT, you could bridge via the MoCA cable network. You need a piece of Coax which is on the same house wiring as the rest of your network for FiOS TV (assuming you have FiOS TV here) at the location where the WRG814 is located.   Purchase a MoCA adapter (such as the ActionTec HME2200) for around $80. This takes Coax in one side and ethernet in the other. Plug the ethernet into a LAN port on the WRG614 (same disable of DHCP and address considertations) and the Coax into the Coax.   It will automatically pair up with the Westell and bridge itself onto the LAN network.
3. Wireless Bridge - Purchase a wireless bridge/print server -- Netgear used to make the WGPS606 wireless print server that was really good for this as did BuffaloTech (until that got sued for a patent infringement).   It has a 4-port switch in it to which you can connect systems.   You then configure the device and it will connect wirelessly to your wireless network on your Westell.
You WRG814 may act like the bridge in option #3, but in looking at the documentation, it didn't appear that it contained all the functionality needed -- but if it were going to work, the wireless client bridge -- where you have to enter in the Mac address of the parent router (being the Westell's wireless interface) is the one you would use.
Oh ... and before someone adds it ... there are "Power Line" bridges as well that you can use.   These are a bit more finicky and subject to line noise thru degraded connectivity speeds, but another option as well for connecting the two networks together.

Help! Bridge wireless intermittent

I installed two br350.
Every 18 minutes (circa) the link go down.
Log from non-root "Lost authentication with parent"
then "Deauthenticating [root bridge], reason "not autenticated"
then "Associated to Parent"
This loop go away for 7-10 times, then the link go up for other 18 minutes, then the loop start again.
please help me, thanks.
PS Excuse me for my english

I have a similar intermittent link issue with 1242APs used as RootAP/Workgroup bridge combination. The user does not perceive the Radio link going down and up, because the recovery is pretty fast.
As can been seen in the logs below, the reason is max retries exceeded. Is there a way, we can improve the situation? or is this normal?
Moreover, my link tests show higher SNR a max of 254 in one direction. The other way around, it is low.. How do i interpret these results...?
Any help is appreciated.

WAP4410N and WRT610N Cant Bridge Wirelessly in 802.11N

I have two buildings across the street from each other and purchased the WAP4410N on advice of a tech support rep at Cisco who stated I would be able to bridge the two locations with the WAP4410N and my current router WRT610N in N mode however todate 8 month later I've gotten no success in bridging in N but I've been successful in G, but the connection is spotty (not to mention VERY SLOW) as it's just out on the verge of being out of range. for the four tech's who've opened cases they agree this is possible but have been unable to get this to work in their lab or onsite here and close the case after they give up since there is at least A bridge irregardless of how poor of a job it's doing.
Has anyone been able to bridge in N mode? If so any advice as to the specific settings you have been able to use to connect? If not, or you can verify why not, what additional changes I will need to make.
and yes I am aware that running a line would be a better option, but it would be $3k to have the pipe just across the street let alone the burial quality cat5 costs

A reasonable solution would be not use the wrt610n and get a wrvs4400n version 2. Your connecting up a consumer product up to a small business product and in the past i have seen issues with stable and reliable connections. The wap4410n and the Wrvs4400n have what is called WDS that they can use to make the bridge connect up and be more stable for you. It would be a less expensive option than burying a line.

Create VLAN over 1310 Bridges

How can i create Differents VLANs on 1310 Root bridge and pass the VLAN info to the non root bridge wirelessly.
Currently my switch ports are configured as access port for the bridges and if i make the port a trunk port; siwtch connected to the non root bridge stops communicating. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,

1310 Non-Root Bridge Accessing Different Subnets

From this non-root 1310 bridge, we are connecting to an old BR500 root bridge via wireless.
Clients inside the non-root bridge are able to access devices anywhere on the subnet (servers, workstations, etc.) via the bridge (wireless connection) with no problems. But, these clients cannot access the default gateway of the subnet or pass through the router (I can't even ping the default gateway router interface from the 1310 bridge; yet from the bridge, I can ping anything else on the same subnet).
Of course, clients on the wired LAN are able to browse the Internet, etc. -- it is only clients behind this bridge that cannot seem to "get out" so to speak.
This is a small LAN -- so everything is VLAN1 with a router at the boundary.
I have even ran a "sh ip arp" on the 1310 to ensure that a MAC entry is in the table for the default gateway IP, and it is there.
Any ideas?

Make sure there is no access list confiugred on the router blocking the access. Save the configurations and restart the bridge .

Providing wireless to an out building using two Aironet 1232AG's. Repeater or Bridge?

I'm hoping to provide wireless access to an outlying building two using Aironet 1232AG's. My plan is to have AP-1 on the main building LAN with a directional antenna and AP-2 in the out building acting as a repeater.
Is a repeater configuration the ideal setup in this situation? If I configure a bridge instead, is it possible for AP-2 to still function as an AP and broadcast a SSID?
Also, does anyone have a 1232AG compatible antenna that they would recommend for outdoor use and a distance of ~100 yards between AP's?
Would appreciate any advice you folks have.

I would go with "Wireless Bridge" option rather configure it as Repeater. That gives more flexibility when configuring SSID/vlan on your AP in remote building.
Make sure station role "non-root bridge wireless-clients" is supported by this AP model. Here is a few config reference when it comes to bridges.

Here is a Repeater config as a reference

Thanks Scott. We can go as high as we need to clear the fresnel zone. There is nothing but an empty parking lot in between the 2 building and about 1500 - 2000 feet of space but I have not done a site survey to see about the 2.4Ghz. I think we are going to need different antennae as well correct? I think the internal ones only go about 626 feet or so. I was thinking about using AIR-ANT3338. your thoughts.
Thanks in advance!
