Re: [WISPA] Routing woes.....
What is the Ethernet assignment on the edge router? What is the connection to the BR AP units? Is it Ethernet or wireless? I am thinking it is Ethernet since the BR AP units seem to have their radios in AP mode, but the BH designation on the one unit has me not so sure of it. My first comment is actually a question. Why use bridging at all? You have subnets assigned to all devices so routing would be a snap to implement and you are more than half way there. Bridging uses the IP strictly for configuration. It will figure out the connections based on the ARP table, so in my mind you never really have routes in a bridge design. The two conflict. For routing design just make sure to use subnets that are common for each connected device. That means that if you connect the edge unit to the other units by Ethernet, they all share a unique subnet and when you can ping the connected units you have the basis for a routed backbone. Once that is done and all backbone units are pingable on Ethernet I would simply enable RIP and remove the bridge tags and you would be solid for the rest of the LAN. Just keep assigning new, unique subnets to all new devices and let RIP take care of it. All you will need is a default route on each new device that points to the machine and IP it connects with. By moving to routed and RIP you will find your current system is simpler and easier and I'll bet it will have higher performance and it will offer you more control and troubleshooting ability.

The edge router is in my office connected to WAN and 172.22.1.0/24 There is a radio on the roof (bridge) feeding BR AP1 wireless (1.3) The second wpci is an AP (1.12) Ethernet connects BRAP1, BRAP2 and BRAP3 on 172.22.255.0/29 BRAP2 is an AP (12.1) BRAP3 is an AP (13.1) and a BH to a new tower.

Why use bridging at all? You have subnets assigned to all devices so routing would be a snap to implement and you are more than half way there. Bridging uses the IP strictly for configuration. It will figure out the connections based on the ARP table, so in my mind you never really have routes in a bridge design. The two conflict. For routing design just make sure to use subnets that are common for each connected device. That means that if you connect the edge unit to the other units by Ethernet, they all share a unique subnet and when you can ping the connected units you have the basis for a routed backbone. Once that is done and all backbone units are pingable on Ethernet I would simply enable RIP and remove the bridge tags and you would be solid for the rest of the LAN. Just keep assigning new, unique subnets to all new devices and let RIP take care of it. All you will need is a default route on each new device that points to the machine and IP it connects with. By moving to routed and RIP you will find your current system is simpler and easier and I'll bet it will have higher performance and it will offer you more control and troubleshooting ability.

RE: [WISPA] Routing woes.....
In a routed network I would expect all interfaces that directly connect on the same lan segment to have addresses from the same network range. As yours do not then it suggests you are bridging and, as Lonnie said, chances are this is the route cause of your problems. Perhaps now is the time to switch to a properly routed network? You don’t need to run a routing protocol like RIP or OSPF if you are no ready for it yet and tbh there are some dodgy implementations out there. Getting rid of any bridged interfaces and putting in static routes and correct ip assignment should do the job.

What is the Ethernet assignment on the edge router? What is the connection to the BR AP units? Is it Ethernet or wireless? I am thinking it is Ethernet since the BR AP units seem to have their radios in AP mode, but the BH designation on the one unit has me not so sure of it. My first comment is actually a question.
