don't you plug the patch cable from the AP into the switch; sorry its wireless and you don't need cables do you?
In order for anyone to help you you need to explain your LAN topology; addressing scheme, and what AP's your going to install!
the gateways are different, as are DNS, DHCP whatever; so the host can figure it out, also hosts file can be altered to ensure speedy connections in case of more than 1 possible route
say 192.168.0.0 dgw 192.168.0.254 dns 192.68.0.254 dhcp 192.168.0.254 no access to internet but access to LAN...
Aneesh stop saying router in bridge mode its making me crazy, just think of it as a layer 2 switch.
A layer 2 switch will forward a broadcast packet out of all its interfaces without any change in the IP header.
Edit:
Would you care to explain why a wrt54g isn't real IT Gear ?
The wrt54G is...
Aneesh a router bridging 3 ethernet interfaces is layer 2 switching and in this configuration is not routing at all; IP is routed via gateway device (router) to another network (different sub-net); layer 3 routing.
Btw you owe me 100€ for helping you with your last homework assignment; lol...
I get it; sorry but I work in enterprise only so I never would have thought about what your saying.
The other thing with bridge mode is that typically the customer is paying for a static IP so as to be configurable for admin, remote access, traps ect.
Double NAT’ing doesn’t even make sense???
Using bridge-mode or not you’re only going to get 1 IP from your ISP, either way you’re going to need some other device to provide DHCP/DWG for other LAN users; the cable modem translates the data from either the DSL/Telco or cable/cable provider to...
The MAC sub layer of the OSI model refers to the part that is the brains of layer 2 switching; the MAC layer sets up communications via MAC addresses alone, meaning that all traffic must be on the same subnet otherwise its either dropped or forwarded on to the gateway address; think layer 3...
Typically you config your DSL/cable modem in bridge mode so as to by-pass the modem and drop the IP on the router; this lets you manage the router almost like a typical WAN connection without the price.
Gaber2611 one of the reasons that you haven’t seen a response is because your hitting up someone’s bread’n’butter. What I mean is what your trying to accomplish is engineer a WLAN for metro-area coverage. Read about Belair and Minneapolis or read about Azalea and the Beijing Olympics all perfect...
In a nut shell PSTN lines are expensive compared to data, so what companies do is bring in let’s say 100 lines at their data center, and then each branch office will have a high-speed data link to the data center, all the VoIP traffic flows from the branch offices data circuit back to the data...
VoIP is not a protocol; it’s an implementation of encapsulating voice into an IP packet and optimizing it for routing and switching over an IP network. Common VoIP protocols are SIP, IMS, RTP, IAX, and others, these are the actual standards that allow for voice to be encapsulated into an IP...
The term Ethernet applies to an IEEE ratified data standard called 802.3; all traffic will be encapsulated in an 802.3 frame and directed to its recipient, no difference for data, voice or video.
