- | '''We are currently experiencing Client Bridge and Repeater Bridge problems when the host is a non-Linux based router. If you are experiencing problem or would like to report a non-linux router as a problem please post in this [http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=36138 thread]. We are trying to keep this list up to date. Client Bridge is said to be working with the old V23 SP2 build...but not the newest V24 builds.''' | + | |

- | My setup using V24 builds[[User:Redhawk0|redhawk]] | + | |

- | ==Instructions== added 05/29/08 - Security added 06/06/08 | + | |
- | | + | |
- | A very simple step-by-step instruction to connect a Router running DD-WRT V24 firmware in Client Bridge Mode. | + | |
- | | + | |
- | Confirmed working on | + | |
- | V24-Final | + | |
- | V24-SP1 | + | |
- | V24 Pre-SP2 | + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | To enable Bridge-Mode between two Routers, the Primary router has to be in AP mode. The Secondary router running DD-WRT as Client Bridged | + | |
- | | + | |
- | # Do a hard reset (30/30/30) on Client (DD-WRT) Router | + | |
- | # Connect to the secondary router via wired LAN port | + | |
- | #Open the '''Wireless -> Basic Settings''' tab | + | |
- | #*Wireless Mode : Client Bridge | + | |
- | #*Wireless Network Mode : Match Primary Router | + | |
- | #*Wireless Network Name(SSID) : Match Primary Router | + | |
- | #*Wireless Channel : Match Primary Router | + | |
- | #*Wireless SSID Broadcast : Enable | + | |
- | #*Network Configuration : Bridged | + | |
- | #*'''Save Settings''' | + | |
- | # Open the '''Wireless-> Wireless Security''' tab | + | |
- | #*Set your Encryption to either WEP or WPA-Personal | + | |
- | #**Note - Don't use WPA2 for Client Bridge mode | + | |
- | #*If WPA is chosen - use only TKIP or AES...not TKIP+AES | + | |
- | #**Note - the Primary router can be running WPA TKIP+AES | + | |
- | #**Note - 07/15/08 - TKIP + AES is now working on the Client Bridge.- redhawk | + | |
- | #*Enter your encryption key to match the Primary router | + | |
- | #*'''Save Settings''' | + | |
- | # Open the '''Setup -> Basic Setup''' tab | + | |
- | #*Connection Type will be: Disabled | + | |
- | #*Set STP for Disabled (Enabled sometimes can cause connection problems) | + | |
- | #*IP Address : 192.168.1.2 (Assuming Primary Router IP is 192.168.1.1) | + | |
- | #*Mask : 255.255.255.0 | + | |
- | #*Gateway: 192.168.1.1 (again assuming Primary Router IP is 192.168.1.1) | + | |
- | #*Assign WAN Port to Switch : Checked or Unchecked - your choice | + | |
- | #*'''Save Settings''' | + | |
- | # Open the '''Setup -> Advanced Routing''' tab | + | |
- | #*Change ''Type'' to: Router | + | |
- | #*'''Save Settings''' | + | |
- | #Open the '''Security -> Firewall''' tab | + | |
- | #*You MUST Uncheck all boxes except "Filter Multicast" in "Block WAN Requests" before the next step | + | |
- | #*Disable SP1 firewall | + | |

- | I started a page here to make it easy to find this info. | + | |
- | So far, as related to version 2.3 and gui setup of this mode only, (no tweaking by telnetting in and running nvram commands), I could only find info in the following links. | + | |

- | Using DD-WRT v23 (01/11/05 & 25/12/05) I succeeded with Client bridge mode with WPA changing only the following from the defaults: | + | |
- | | + | |
- | Setup > Basic Setup | + | |
- | DHCP Server: Disable | + | |
- | | + | |
- | Wireless > Basic Settings | + | |
- | Wireless Mode: Client Bridged | + | |
- | Wireless Network Mode: Mixed | + | |
- | | + | |
- | Wireless > Wireless Security | + | |
- | Security Mode: WPA Pre-Shared Key | + | |
- | WPA Algorithms: TKIP | + | |
- | WPA Shared Key: <equal to the other side> | + | |
- | | + | |
- | Status > Wireless | + | |
- | Survey | + | |
- | (shows list of available networks. Select the proper one, then click Join and Close.) | + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | The other side is a standard internet connected Hyper-WRT 2.0. | + | |
- | For the 01/11/05 version both the DD-WRT router and all connected computers appear in the DHCP Active IP Table. With the 25/12/05 version only the connected computer appear. | + | |
