I'm attempting to use my WRT54G v2.0 as a router for
wired ethernet segment to extend my wireless reach to
another Linksys AP. To that end I've installed
OpenWRT White Russian RC6, and have configured it as
such:
- break the bridge between wired and wireless segments
- assign 192.168.1.1 as the address of the wired
segment
- assign 192.168.15.15 to the wireless segment
- assign a static route in the remote router to send
traffic for 192.168.1.X to 192.168.15.15
- connect a wired host to the 54G and assign it IP
192.168.1.3
>From the router console I can ping my wired host at
192.168.1.3, the wireless AP at 192.168.15.1, and the
host 192.168.15.5, so I believe that the 54G
understands how to reach the different networks it's
directly connect to.
>From the remote AP at 192.168.15.1 I can ping
192.168.15.15 and 192.168.1.1.
>From host 192.168.1.3 I can ping 192.168.1.1 and
192.168.15.15 -- both address on the 54G. However, I
cannot ping 192.168.15.1.
It seems like the 54G is not forwarding packets
between the to network segments. Is that true? Is
there additional configuration that needs to be done?
Or something else I can try?
