• E4200 Bridge Mode

  Can someone please point out what I'm doing wrong here...

  I have my main router, an E4200v2 which I use as a router and it provides a signal wireless throughout my house, but reception is not as strong on the top floor and there is a slight dead spot, so I bought an E4200 to the top floor.

  I put the E4200 to bridge mode so it will act only as an AP.

  However connecting two routers LAN LAN and the AP to access internet

  Set a static IP address for the router, instead of acquiring one through DHCP causes me not being able to access the admin on the AP page.

  WAN connection on the E4200 to the LAN on the v2 does not either.

  My goal here is to have my main router on 192.168.1.1 and the AP to 192.168.1.2 where I can access the admin for both routers settings in case I need to make changes.

  Can someone point me in the right direction here...

  Thank you

  1. make sure that the cable works properly. To connect to a computer with a port gigabit ethernet for the cable to your main router. Make sure you get a gigabit ethernet connection and a working network connection.

  2. with the bridge mode, you must connect the internet port of the uplink.

  3 wire the E4200 second with his internet port to the main router. Wire from one computer to one of the LAN ports. Check if you have internet.

  4. do the E4200 get an IP via DHCP if it was configured to use DHCP? You can find the IP address in the list of your main router DHCP clients.

  5. what exactly do you static ip mode bridge on the second router?

• E4200 limits in Bridge Mode

  Hello

  My setup goes like this: I have a fiber to Ethernet from my ISP connector. The Ethernet cable going to one ISP has published my Zyxel router. In this router fixed phoneservice connects to give us a landline VoIP service (which is cheaper). An Ethernet cable going to the Internet port on the E4200 to the Zyxel router LAN port. That works fine but I had to put the E4200 in Bridge Mode so that it can connect to the Internet through the Zyxel router I need to use phone services my ISP provides.

  I bought the E4200 because I wanted to use the dualband functionally and get an 802.11n 5 GHz network configuration and to give me the ability to block certain Web sites and services that I know Cisco/Linksys is famous for--the ability to control your network.

  Well, imagine my surprise when I couldn't use the Parental control settings when the router is in Bridge Mode. This is the reason why I bought this router on an Apple Airport extreme. Is there anyway to allow me to use the Parental control in Bridge Mode or a better way to connect to the router with the rest of my network?

  Thanks for any help!

  If you do not have devices (mainly the game features) which require an open NAT, you can connect an ethernet cable from the Zyxel router to the Internet port on your E4200 and simply use it as a normal router without mode bridge.

  Make sure that the ip address of the E4200 is on a different subnet (just change the third octet (to the third decimal number) to something different than used as IP default Zyxel.

  You could call your ISP and ask them how to dumb down the Zyxel so that you can use the E4200 as main router and Zyxel as a modem too.

• Connect and 4200 in Bridge mode

  Can connect be used when the router is in Bridge mode with FIOS router as the main router? Seems when I try to install that he finds not the 4200. THX!

  Nope.  I doubt if you can use your cisco connect with router E4200, defined as a bridge.

• E4200V2 Wireless Bridge Mode disconnects

  I have an E4200V2 with the last installed firmware.36.

  The E4200V2 is configured in Bridge Mode. DHCP from 4200 is an IP address for itself of my network infrastructure. It is a modem UBEE DOCSIS 3 (exit concert E) on a cable connection 100 meg feeding a router/firewall IP Cop Linux and go to a concert, entirely gig E on the network side. The wired network is absolutely bulletproof. And the older B AP only that worked well was also on this same configuration.

  I have the nec N only on the side of the 5 GHz E4200V2, and I had it set on Auto for channel selection, but set a currently unused channel manually. The side 2.5 GHz is also manually defined a locally unused channel now and is set to mixed mode, as I I need to connect to B/G/N devices. The channel not used for two radios was total by searching for the activity of the PA using one of my Linux laptops.  I have the 5 GHz and 2.5 GHz radios set to the width of the channel 20/40. And I use the WPA2-Personal recommended for security on both, with a different SSID name for each radio.

  For two radios E4200 V2 wireless disconnects on both pretty random but regular and has to reconnect. This happens on both radios. There is no interference, and no network feed problems it would cause. And the older B single Orinoco AP I replaced never had these problems. The signals are strong for all devices and drop-outs occur even when you test with a laptop several feet from the E4200V2. If I'm streaming a video on GoogleTV or music or playing a game online, the 4200 disconnects regularly and devices need to reconnect. This happens on both radios and to each device.

  Disconnect it happen on a device GoogleTV, a Blackberry, many laptops with Windows XP, Windows 7, several Linux distributions and a Kindle keyboard.

  I see recommendations change settings wireless advanced posted on this forum, and however the E4200V2 doesn't have these same advanced available settings to be changed.

  I don't do anything with the E4200V2, but wireless. It is connected to via the port WAN on the E4200V2 and nothing else in the E4200V2 is used.

  It must be a problem of firmware on the E4200. V2. I've seen other posts on this subject.

  Any ideas would be appreciated.

  I like the router, and the intensity of the signal is great about it. But I have to get this constant random disconnection problem solved.

  I'll mark this resolved.

  I used the settings by default in the main wireless screen, that is automatic on the channel and auto on the selection of 20/40 MHz and define a different name for the 2.5 GHz radio and 5.

  Then I and advanced the settings shown above.

  I got on the 5 GHz radio streaming video throughout the day and evening on my Google TV and not a single hiccup. Music streaming on Sirius on a Blackberry for hours, without drops. And eddd some surf and download and play on the 2.5 GHz radio, with no dropouts at all.

  That's how I expect the router to work out of the box...

  As far as I can see, the changes in the parameters have on the WIFi connection on the side of rock solid now.

• The most convenient airport in Bridge mode lose packets

  Hi all.

  I have an airport extreme with the version of firmware 7.7.7 (later at the time of this announcement). My modem ISP settings are blocked and it is already fixed to make routing/DHCP/Nat, so I use my airport extreme in Bridge mode to avoid the double NAT (it connects connects to the ISP with DHCP router).

  Both the ISP modem/router and Airport extreme are creating two different 'wifi networks", which belong to the same network (192.168.0.0).

  I can enter each of this Wifi network, obtain an IP address in both cases and start using the internet.

  However, when I use it on my ISP router, everything works perfectly, however, when I use it on the airport network, it fails from time to time.

  If I start ping an external IP address (e.g.: 8.8.8.8), I've never lost a packet on the network of the ISP router, but I lose packets often on the airport extreme network.

  Also, if I ping the ISP of the airport extreme network router I lose packets from time to time. Sometimes also vice versa. I never lose packets when ping the router whose network providing I'm connected to.

  All the settings on the airport extreme values by default (except that I created an additional network of 5 GHz).

  Can you give us some advice as how to solve the problem? I read somewhere that disable ipv6 connection sharing could solve the problem, but it didn't. Thanks in advance

  If you have the Ethernet cable from your ISP router that is connected to the "O" on the AirPort Extreme WAN port, unplug the cable and plug it into one of the three ports LAN <>- on the airport to see if this will help with the issue.

  However, if you have the Ethernet cable from the ISP router already connected to one of the LAN <>- port on the AirPort Extreme, then you'll need to reset the AirPort Extreme back to default settings and then set up again.

  If you have any further questions, the Airport extreme is defective and must be replaced.

• How can I configure my Airport Extreme in Bridge mode (use the 3rd party router)?

  Data sheet:

  Airport Extreme - v 7.7.7

  Luma Surround Wifi 8

  I recently bought a wifi (luminance) surround system.  It comes with 3 routers that you place around your home.  Unfortunately I still have stains died in my house I'm looking to add my Airport Extreme (AE) to Luma network.  Is it as simple as plug the AE to the network (via Ethernet) and the bridge mode selection in the configuration of EI?

  I can see the AE of my iMac, and it is green.  How do you know that actually extend the wifi of my router Luma range?

  I searched the forum and all messages dealing with this are several years old.

  Thanks for your time...

  Basically, you want to create a mobile network with your Luma and AirPort Extreme routers. As you said, the extreme would need to be connected to the luminance by Ethernet and reconfigured as a bridge.

  In addition, the following are also required on the extreme:

  • Wireless mode: create a wireless network
  • The network name must be the same as that used by the Luma.
  • The type of wireless security and the password must match that of the luminance as well.

  To 'know' that the extreme extends the network of Luma, simply consult the BSSID value in the drop-down of OS X Wi - Fi. It must match the ID of the airport on your base station. Note: You must hold down the option key before clicking on the icon of the free Wi - Fi connection.

• Bridge mode breaks down wireless network

  I have a Time Capsule of 4th generation, I am creating an additional wifi network at the back of my house to cover a dead zone.  I'm not trying to extend an existing wifi, I seek to create a new wifi network but have it on the same network range as my network existing.

  My ISP is a router that I have in my basement that has wireless on it. .  It powers up to one router links AC that all my devices connect to.  Then, this device provides wired and wireless access to most of the House.  However, I have a task of dead at the back of the House for the wifi.  So I have an Ethernet cable, which goes to the back of the House and who connects in port WAN on the Apple Airport Extreme / Time Capsule (4th gen).   If I set this device to create a new wireless network in bridge mode, it works for about 20 minutes to an hour and then causes a sort of problem on my network and all my other devices go crazy.  If I disable the router from Apple or back to NAT, everything's fine.

  The only reason why I don't want to do this NAT device is because if I put it up to NAT then devices connected to the apple Airport extreme will have more access to the apple TV on the main network.

  So I need no more shots on why the bridge mode does not work on the router from apple or I need to know how to get Apple TV visible on two different IP ranges at the same time.  Unfortunately, the Apple TV can be connected to both wifi and wireless at the same time.

  Anyone have any ideas?

  Bridge should work fine... I would suspect that your TC gives signs of decomposition.

  It is now more than 3 years old which is the best before date.

  Try again using static IP method... I think it is more successful than the bridge.

  Should be enough information in this post... but if not just give me all the IP info from the existing modem router to. I can then give you specific info to set the TC.

• Bridge mode... Router and TC

  My internet does not work if I have my xfinity on bridge mode router and my TC on mode bridge?

  Bridge on the modem/router and Bridge Mode on the TC will not work.

  Xfinity modem/router must be configured as a modem only simple only (in bridged Mode), and the TC must be configured in router Mode of DHCP and NAT

  or

  Xfinity modem/router must be configured normally as a modem/router, and the TC must be configured in Bridge Mode

• Can I use a wireless bridge mode?

  I have problems with NAT Type 2. I want to disable the appearance of shaping of my Time Capsule and continue to use wi - fi. I thought I knew how to do this after selecting the bridge Mode and place all cables ethernet in making <>_, that the Wireless does not work, as in, it looks good in Airport utility, but I can't connect to my devices. I should add that there is a switch/hub between the TC and the modem cable. Why wi - fi does not work?

  What is the number and model of your modem?

  We ask for the type of modem you have will determine whether or not you can have a switch between modem and Time Capsule.

• Second Airport Extreme in Bridge mode, ethernet ports does not

  I have two routers, I want to use. The first is a time Capsule (old model 2 TB) connected to a single cable modem. The second is an Airport Extreme (also a little older, the 'flat' last body model until they began to sell towers). Both have the 7.6.4 firmware.

  The problem is that I want to use the second to extend my network, but I don't want to use wifi. I have the second of the WAN port connected via an Ethernet cable to the network served by the time Capsule, but when I launch the extreme in Bridge mode with a Mac Pro plugged into one of the ports ethernet to the extreme, it says it is not connected to the net.

  Y at - there a trick to getting the second router work ports ethernet when used in this way?

  Thanks in advance!

• No comments in Bridge mode network

  I'm not able to maintain a network of comments on my AEBS. If I use the bridge mode on my ADSL modem, then the guest network is visible but not able to be reached by any user with or without password. If I try to use the bridge mode on my AEBS then I have a double NAT error

  The only way that the AEBS can provide a wireless network by using the Guest network feature is if the airport is configured to act as a router. This would mean that the router mode on the airport must be set to DHCP and NAT.

  

  If this setting produces a view of Double NAT, then your "modem" will also provide a DHCP and NAT services... and the modem must be configured in Mode bridge true to allow the AEBS functioning on the network.

  Unfortunately, a number of "modem/router" cannot be set to run in real Mode bridge, your first task must be to find out if it is possible to configure your router/modem to operate only as a simple modem in Bridge Mode... and if he can bet set up this way... 'How' to do it.

  If the modem/router was provided to you by your provider of Internet Service (ISP), you will need to get with the people of support at your ISP for answers.

• Time Capsule backup disabled on Bridge mode

  Hi all...

  I have a 3rd generation (A1355) Time Capsule and I connected on a D-Link DSL-2520U router which is connected to my DSL via PPPoE internet connection. In order to get my setup working, I had to put the network on the bridge mode settings. Since my backup Time Capsule does not work, and when I try to manually force the backup system, it is said: "the backup drive is not found. Make sure that the backup disk is connected, or select a different backup disk. »

  When I try to put the time Capsule to DHCP, it is said: "the DHCP range you have entered conflicts with your base station WAN IP address."

  Now, what can I do to get it working again?

  Bridge mode is the correct setting of the time Capsule, but you changed the 'path' that has been using Time Machine to locate your Time Capsule on the network, so that it can not find the time Capsule.

  (Gear on the dock icon)... open Mac system preferences

  Open Time Machine

  Click Add or remove disks

  Under the backup disks, click to select the current backup drive

  Click on remove the disc at the bottom right of the window

  Close the windows

  Restart the Mac.

  Then, go to time Machine again as above, click select disk and select the backup drive that you want to use, and then click on using the drive.

  Wait a few minutes for a backup start, or if you do not want to wait... click on the "clock" icon Time machine at the top of the screen of the Mac, and then click Backup now.
