5 Ns2 Apwds connected to the zyxel Hotspot gtwy but problems

[bgoksel]

Total 5 Ns2 works with Apwds to the one Ns2 and this NS2 connected to the bullet2 with apwds.
There is no problem for free internet when bullet2 directly connected to the dsl modem but when we put zyxel between dsl and bullet2,cant see login screen,it mostly says " communication lost with the server ".
But sometimes we catch it after long tries.
Zyxel is dhcp enabled also dsl modem dhcp enabled,ns2 and bullet2 have static ip's.Zyxel and dsl in diffrent ip subnets.

Any suggestions are welcome,

thanks,

Can you be more specific?

What is the connection type? What are IP addresses of the devices?:

NS2(APWDS)~~
......(APWDS)~~NS2(APWDS)~~Bullet2(APWDS)=Zyxel=dsl
NS2(APWDS)~~

Or

NS2(APWDS)=|
......(APWDS)=|Switch=NS2(APWDS)~~Bullet2(APWDS)=Zyxel=dsl
NS2(APWDS)=|

There:
~ - is wireless connection
= - is ethernet cable connection

Hi Keba,

exactly like this;

NS2(APWDS)~~
......(APWDS)~~NS2(APWDS)~~Bullet2(APWDS)==Switch==Zyxel=dsl
NS2(APWDS)~~

Ns2 has ip's 192.168.1.246 ~ 250
Zyxel s ip 192.168.1.1 DHCP enabled
Dsl Modem 10.0.0.2 Dhcp enabled
Connection type is Bridge

thanks,

What is the ethernet cable used between Zyxel and Switch (straight/crossed)?
Does it work if you connect PC instead of Bullet to Zyxel?
What is mode of Zyxel? It is router or bridge?
Is DHCP server or client enabled on Zyxel and dsl modem?
If DHCP are servers than why do you need 2 DHCP server?

[bgoksel]

ethernet cable is straight.
Pc works without problem.Login screens comes quickly without problem.
Zyxel mode must be bridged if not what sld we do?
Zyxel and dsl modem dhcp client enabled.
We can close the dsl dhcp if helps...
Bullet is in bridge mode.

If you use PC connected to Switch is it work?
Is fw the same on all NS/Bullet?

[bgoksel]

if we changed the cable that comes from the ns2 connected switch to the dsl modem,there is no problem everyone surfs freely.We sld test pc connected to the switch version.Could be a switch problem?

All Ns2 has Fw V.3.1.1
B2 has Fw V.3.2.2 default

Hello,

I would update all units to the same firmware V3.2.3-RC from http://www.ubnt.com/support/airos.php then retest the link.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi Mike,

thank you for suggestion,but I dont thisk this is a fw version problem.Otherwise it wont work if we remove the hotspot gateway from the middle..But it works without problem when we directly plug in to the dsl modem.

It sounds like an IP/DHCP problem .. has the hotspot unit been config'd properly? It sounds like when it is inserted into the path, it is blocking traffic / ie not talking to each side properly, and therefore you're losing connection.
