Hi im planning a new routing layout for my wifi.

i would like to know from the experts will this example work?

here it is


Router1(KKT-HS)
rb1

eth1(link between rb1 & rb2) 172.23.128.1/32 ~ 172.23.128.2/32
grid1 (link beteen KKT-HS & Emile-HS) 172.23.128.3/32 ~ 172.23.128.4/32
grid2 (link between KKT-HS & Hannes) 172.23.128.5/32 ~ 172.23.128.6/32
omni 172.23.128.7/28 ~ 172.23.128.21/28

rb2
grid1(Link between grwug & odnwug)
sector1 172.23.128.29/28 ~ 172.23.128.43/28
sector2 172.23.128.44/28 ~ 172.23.128.58/28
eth1 (link between rb1 & rb2) 172.23.128.2/32 ~ 172.23.128.1/32

Router2 (Emile-HS)
grid1(link between Emile-HS & KKT-HS)
omni1 172.23.128.59/28 ~ 172.23.128.73/28
sector1 172.23.128.74/28 ~ 172.23.128.88/28

router3 (Hannes)
grid1(link between KKT-HS & Hannes) 172.23.128.6/32 ~ 172.23.128.5/32
omni1 172.23.128.89/28 ~ 172.23.128.103/28
grid2(link between Hannes & thys) 172.23.128.104/32 ~ 172.23.128.105/32


router4 (Thys)
grid1 (Link between Hannes & Thys) 172.23.128.105/32 ~ 172.23.128.104/32
omni1 172.23.128.105/28 ~ 172.23.128.119/28
sector1 172.23.128.120/28 ~ 172.23.128.134/28

router5 (cpe)(Bob)
cpe (connects to sector on thys) 172.23.128.121/32


PS: Will bob be able to connect becos he is using subnet /32 and the HS is using /28 ?????

Thanx in advanced
 
I had a quick look at this earlier, scratched my head when I saw all the /32's and made a note to look at it again later.

Kameelperd, I'm still trying to figure out what you're trying to say.

re

I have made more changes, i will allow 14 clients per antenna. Hopefully the ap can handle 30 clients.

Quick question, i know its a very newbie question, but im really not that advanced in routing/mikrotik.

Ive purchased a RB433 with 1 x R5H mini-pci's, 1 x 31dbi grid. Running Level 4 license

We need to create a link from the office to the outbuilding, which is aprox 200M. I've configured the RB433 with :

1. 1 x SSID running on 5825 freq
2. WPA-PSK for security (not really a need for it, nobody near..) (Famous last words, lol)
3. A bridge called 'bridge1' - and added the different interfaces (wlan1+ether1) to the bridge
4. An IP for the bridge - 192.168.0.2 (My DSL router is 192.168.0.1)

For the Client Station - Using a RB411 and a 19DBi integrated panel -

1. Configured the CPE as 'station', configured wpa + created a bridge, added the ether1 + wlan to the bridge, created an ip '192.168.0.2'

BUT , for crying in a (rather large) bucket, i cannot ping the client ip from the base, and vica versa. I cannot see that the radio's are connected under "Registered" stations, and i can winbox to the client, but i just cannot ping it!
I thought it were routing issue, and read up on the net everywhere, even tried to work throught the whole TCP-IP talks on the net, to no avail. I have really tried everything, and its going to be something simple again, (like it always is)

Can anybody shed some light?

Do you have a licence to operate on 5825?

Are you really using a 31dBi antenna to go 200m down the road?
 
re

I m in the IT industry, thats why i suggested the wifi setup. Used to deal the guys at Etime in George, www.etime.co.za , thats how i got my wireless knowledge...


The company that i work for also had etime, we constantly had network timeouts dut to one of their dns server. So we canceled the contract and upgraded our IS connection.

To pietervickers123,
1. remove bridge from the routers
2. Then putty to the router and add this address paste this
Code:
ip address add address=192.168.0.2/24 interface=ether1
3. Then paste this also in same router
Code:
ip address add address=192.168.1.1/24 interface=wlan1
4. ip route add dst-address=0.0.0.0/0 gateway=192.168.0.1


then on router 2
1.
Code:
ip address add address=192.168.1.2/24 interface=wlan1
2.
Code:
ip address add address=192.168.2.1/24 interface=wlan1
3.
Code:
ip route add dst-address=0.0.0.0/0 gateway=192.168.1.1


I think that should work. Ip address on remote computer will be 192.168.2.0/24, gateway will be 192.168.2.1 and dns settings same as router
 
Sorry i typed incorrectly.

Please reset routers to default setting and paste these.

router1

ip address add address=192.168.0.2/24 interface=ether1
ip address add address=192.168.1.1/24 interface=wlan1
ip route add dst-address=192.168.2.0/24 gateway=192.168.1.2

router2

ip address add address=192.168.1.2/24 interface=wlan1
ip address add address=192.168.2.1/24 interface=ehter1
ip route add dst-address=0.0.0.0/0 gateway=192.168.1.1

You should then be able to ping 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.1 from 192.168.2.1 and vise versa
If this does not work then add this to router 1

ip firewall nat add chain=srcnat action=masquerade

Please give feedback
