Router: R7800
Firmware: R51887
Following a factory reset I am trying to configure a VAP on a new bridge and its own DHCP Server.. Im following notes I made last time I did this, as well as screenshots of the system pre-factory reset.. But I cant for the life of me get an IP when I connect to the VAP:
VAP Setup:
Bridge:
Assign to Bridge:
Network Config and DHCP:
DNSMASQ:
When I connect to the VAP it does not give me an IP address..?
The Log shows the following:
ar 5 19:32:30 R7800 daemon.warn dnsmasq-dhcp[22692]: DHCP packet received on br1 which has no address
Mar 5 19:32:31 R7800 daemon.warn dnsmasq-dhcp[22692]: DHCP packet received on br1 which has no address
Mar 5 19:32:33 R7800 daemon.warn dnsmasq-dhcp[22692]: DHCP packet received on br1 which has no address
Mar 5 19:32:35 R7800 daemon.warn dnsmasq-dhcp[22692]: DHCP packet received on br1 which has no address
Mar 5 19:32:36 R7800 daemon.warn dnsmasq-dhcp[22692]: DHCP packet received on br1 which has no address
Have I missed anything, or is this an issue with the firmware I am using?
(this is the thread from last time I had this issue, along with some answers, all of which I think I have resolved above: https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=330635&highlight=
Your bridge br1 needs a different IP address in a different subnet than your router.
ebsp 192.168.2.1/24
important is also the subnetmask in CIDR format (/24)

The /24 was an oversight from my part.. It still didnt work, which I think it should, as br0 is on 192.168.0.1.. Anyway, switching it to 192.168.2.1/24 worked.. So thanks for your help.
