Hi, I recently purchases a couple of mnwapb ap's ,configured em to bridge point to point, put each others mac in bridge setting, connected first ap to a pc with xp and changed ap's ip to 192.168.2.2. connected second ap to another pc with xp and left the ip default 192.168.2.1. all the essid, channel no ect are the same but I cannot ping from either machine. I know I must be doing something wrong, all I get is timed out message in the ping screen. The nics are working ok coz I can configure the ap's from either machine. Any suggestions? thanks.

How far away are the AP's from each other?

Did you enable any WEP encryption on the Links?

SB

they are about 4 meteres apart and there is no encryption enabled, also I have have upgraded each to 2.53 but still no go.

Can you ping from one machine to the far MNWAPB ? (i.e. the one it isn't directly connected to)

hmmm, I just pinged the other ap and it worked. then I pinged the other pc and it also worked. sounds like a gremlin. I dont know what I did different. It must of been that i'm gonna hit you with a hammer glare that I gave the ap this morning.

Thanks serialmonkey.

correction, it still dont work, I was pinging the first ap [duh] so I still cannot ping the other ap.

all fixed, I had one digit in the macfield wrong. I cannot believe I didn't see it.

Excellent, glad to hear it's all good.
