Hi,

I´ve got problems to establish a bridge between two of my routers.
I´ve tried to follow these instructions during setup:
http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Wireless_Bridge.

Current config:
Tilgin HG 1522 fiber modem as default router (no. 1) - DHCP server enabled - IP 192.168.80.1

Linksys E4200; original firmware, wired from no 1. - DHCP server disabled - IP 192.168.80.2- firewall off.

Wrt54GL - v24 SP2 13064; configured as per instructions apart from gateway and dns where I used no. 1 IP-address.

Security in use: WPA Personal AES

Anyone see anything I´m doing wrong here?

Would it make a difference if I change firmware to dd-wrt on my E4200?

I would start with the simplest setup. Disable encription and see if it works. You could also try with a fixed IP address.
Check with ping the connectivity between the two wireless routers.

In the first place use the recommended (mini-generic) build 14929.
Then follow the Client-Bridged Wiki to the letter:

It must work like a charm, also with WPA2 Personal and AES.
