Trouble getting WDS Mode to work between 2 RG54G2s

Hi,
I have bought two RG54G2s and am trying to use them to wirelessly bridge 2 wired LANs in my home. (Upstairs & Downstairs)
I am not getting connectivity between the two routers however.
I have read the manual and the article in the FAQ and I *thought* I had it all set up correctly.
Each device has 'Wireless Bridge' & 'Enable WDS Only' options ticked. The MAC address of the 'other' router is also set in each.
The SSIDs are different, the radio channel is the same and there is no security of any kind on the link to cause troubles.
Each router has one test PC connected by Ethernet. Each PC can ping its own router but not the other one.
One router has an ethernet connection from the WAN socket to my network switch. There's no problem with connectivity there.
I wonder if the IP addresses and subnet mask are the problem.
Here's my setup:
Router A = 192.168.1.5 client PC is 192.168.1.100
Router B = 192.168.1.6 client PC is 192.168.1.200
Subnet mask for both is 255255.255.0
I have read through the MSI forum and googled for tips on setting up WDS but cannot find anything 'wrong' in my setup.
What could be wrong? How to determine the actual problem and fix it?
Thanks
Peter

I have the same problem tried varoius configuration but nothing, have you solved your problem? how??

HI,
The Apple IDs from @mac.com and @me.com (Older MobileMe and more recent iCloud Names) are also Valid AIM Screen names.
Any other sort of Apple ID is not a Valid AIM Name.
A Google ID that is associated with Google Mail Account (And has "Talk" enable on your Google Settings) can be used in iChat as Jabber Name/ID. (Google Run Jabber server).
Jabber and AIM are different IM Services and it is not easy or straight forward to add Buddies from one Service to the Buddy List of another. (As A Starting point consider it "impossible")
iChat 4 and 5 have links to the registration page of @Mac.com here with a "Get an iChat Account" button in the add (Account) screen (You select @mac.com or MobileMe and then press the Button - Choosing AIM and then pressing the button used to lead to the AIM registration page but AIM moved their page).
Apple IDs can be any valid email (or an @mac.com or iCloud registration)
Therefore you could make a Google ID into an Apple ID.
However this will not be a valid AIM Screen Name the way @mac.com or MobileMe/iCloud ones are.

Can't get 'clamshell' mode to work with Dell 2408

I have been trying to get my Dell 2408 working in clamshell mode without any success. I have a USB keyboard, USB mouse, power adapter and monitor via DVI plugged in. I switch the display type to mirror, close the lid, wait for it to sleep, then wake it again by pressing a key on the keyboard.
The computer wakes, the external monitor flashes but at the incorrect resolution (1200 X 800 instead of 1920 X 1200) then goes back to sleep. This will repeat over and over again until I open the lid of the macbook. I can occasionally get the macbook to wake and display on the eternal monitor but this is very rare, and when it does I get some wired artifacts.
What's really puzzling is that the monitor works flawlessly in extended desktop mode, and works perfectly with other non mac computers. I took the macbook to the Genius Bar, hooked it up to the apple cinema displays and i didn't get the same problem! Grrr....
So I just don't get it, both the computer and display seemingly work fine independently from one another, work fine in extended mode, yet in clamshell mode have some fairly major issues.
Anyone have any ideas?

My dell 2408 arrived today and I'm having exactly the same problem.I cant get it to go into clamshell mode. I lie, I got it to go into clamshell mode once. I don't know what I did. But it certainly isn't willing to go into clamshell mode again any time soon.

Problems with getting WDS network to work - TimeCapsule + AirportExtreme

Hi There, Apologies if this has been answered somewhere else but I have searched and still havent managed to solve my problem.
I have a TC plugged into our cable modem which is broadcasting wirelessly fine. What I am trying to do is extend the network by using a Airport Extreme BaseStation in another room which has a PC computer plugged into the Airport Extreme via ethernet cable that (the PC doesn't have wireless capability).
so this is what I am trying to do:
Internet - (ethernet) - TimeCapsule - (wifi) - Airport Extreme - (ethernet) - PC
The Time Capsule is running version 7.4.2 software
The Airport Extreme is running version 5.7
What I have tried so far is to set the TC to "Participate in a WDS network" on channel 1 using WPA/WPA2 Personal passwords. In the WDS settings it is set to WDS main and I have allowed the Airport ID of the AE.
In the settings on the AEI have the wireless network name set to the same as the TC, I have the radio mode on 802.11g only (i have tried the others too but didn't seem to work). The wireless mode is set to Participate in WDS network, channel set to 1 and under WDS settings I have it set as WDS relay and the ID of the TC in WDS main settings.
The TC when i look at its set up occasionaly flashes up WDS error, all it says is The device is set up as WDS network but no other Apple Wireless devices were found.
Im really scratching my head on this one, Im not an expert on networks at all but normally configuring apple stuff has caused a lot less headaches that this.
Can anyone tell me if I am doing anything obviously wrong or any suggestions as to what I can do to get this working. (I personally blame the PC for not having wireless!!!)
Cheers
D

Welcome to the discussion area!
WDS can be tricky. Instead of setting up the second device as a relay, you might try setting it up as a remote. Normally, a relay is used between a base and a remote. Take a look at the excellent instructions previously posted by expert Tesserax as follows:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2355832&tstart=0
And you could also refer to Apple's instructions on pages 42-44 in the Designing AirPort Networks Guide

Having trouble getting WDS configured

I finally had some success last night with a base station that I've been having trouble being able to get connected to the network. I set up WDS and was able to see the base station on the network, but for some reason the main base station would not accept the configuration and lists one of the base stations that I'm trying to use as a relay as unavailable. What would be the cause of this? I am able to see the base station on the network, but since I can't save the base station config. I lose the base station I'm trying to get to work from the network. I also can't seem to get the e-mac to have a valid DHCP address. It keeps being assigned a 169.xxx ip address. I feel that I'm close to getting connection, but I need a bit of help understanding what is going on right now with not being able to save the info to the base stations I'm trying to set up with WDS.

If you are using Airport Extreme and Airport Express base stations here is the step by step.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107454
If you are using 3rd party Routers to accomplish this you will need to refer to there paperwork to accomplish this because the settings will be different, Take special interest at the bottom in NOTES.

Problems getting static NAT to work between two internal lans

Hi, I'm trying the old problem of routing between two internal LANs. This on cli 8.6(1)2. I have three interfaces/LANs; outside is to the internet, inside is the rack in the datacentre and office is a dedicated ethernet link to our office. What I want to do is allow all (for now) traffic betrween office and inside. There's a million hits on this on the 'net but I can't get it to work. Packet trace shows packets accepted from office to inside but blocked from inside to office. Both static nats are set up identically. Here's the output of show nat after packet traces in both directions. It clearly shows that inside to office isn't hitting the nat policy. I enclose what I think are the relevant bits of my config. Full config less passwords + crypto attached.
Manual NAT Policies (Section 1)
1 (office) to (inside) source static inside-office inside-office   destination static inside-ld5 inside-ld5 no-proxy-arp route-lookup
    translate_hits = 0, untranslate_hits = 3
2 (inside) to (office) source static inside-ld5 inside-ld5   destination static inside-office inside-office no-proxy-arp route-lookup
    translate_hits = 0, untranslate_hits = 0

object network inside-office
subnet 10.20.11.0 255.255.255.0

same-security-traffic permit intra-interface
nat (office,inside) source static inside-office inside-office destination static inside-ld5 inside-ld5 no-proxy-arp route-lookup
nat (inside,office) source static inside-ld5 inside-ld5 destination static inside-office inside-office no-proxy-arp route-lookup

Hi Kevin,
because your interfaces inside and office are in same security level and you have enabled same-security-traffic permit inter-interface, traffic should simply flow between this interfaces. So i think you don't need NAT between this two subnets if there is not other reason to do so.
Then you just configure ACL which will permit traffic you want between this LANs. In this case both netwroks are directly conneted so routing should work(instead of NAT).
Best Regards,
Jan

How do I to Get HiDPI Mode To Work?

I've downloaded Quartz Debug, and I enabled HiDPI display modes and then logged out as it said I needed to. I log back in and HiDPI mode isn't enabled both in Quartz Debug (After Resume) as well as in Display System Preferences. I've tried disabling Resume, quitting Quartz Debug before logging out, restarting my computer instead of logging out, and any combination of those attempts to get HiDPI working.

Hi
No - iDVD 4 will not work under Mac OS X.5
• Program miss-match. iDVD 5.0.2, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK - DON’T work under Leopard
• Program miss-match. iDVD 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
• Program miss-match. iDVD’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (will work under Leopard)
So I do (if I needed it) use an external hard disk
• Boot-able (able to start from) Has to be FireWire (WesternDigital My Book serie do not work! )
and - has to be Mac OS Extended formatted - Even if bought at Appled Store is not 100%
• On this I would install Mac OS X.3.9 AND iDVD 4
• When needed I would start from this and do My DVDs
OR
Upgrade to iLife'09 and use iDVD'09 (version 7.0.4)

How to get landscape mode to work?

My landscape mode won't work. It was working fine before, and all of a sudden I can't get it to work now. My phone is only a week old!

Reset it, hold down the home and sleep buttons, ignore the red Off slider, wait for the Apple logo and let go of the buttons. Before you do this, is the lock screen icon showing on the top right of the iPhone?
