You probably want to refer to the madwifi list for this.

Recommendations:
Post your script you used to configure the interfaces.
Try not running in repeater mode and create a Vap on one AP
and on the other create a  Vap and a STA.
Bring the STA interface up before brining the Vap up interface.

Hi,

I am really struck up in WDS !!!!!!!

I am using madwifi-ng-r1474-20060314 in one of my APs & the other AP has madwifi-ng-r1531-20060427 …..

I am using Proxim 802.11 a/b/g card ..

I followed all the steps to setup & configure WDS (http://madwifi.org/users-guide/) for both my APs …

Both my APs are in mode 802.11a & my client is able to associate with both my APs individually & hence can ping both separately …

But there is no sign of WDS at all !!!

The APs can’t ping each other, *_nor_* the client, after associating with one AP, can ping the other AP ..

Ping says “ Destination Unreachable ” ….

Outputs from both my AP’s iwconfig & ifconfig commands are :-
