RE: [smartBridges] Urgent DHCP Problem (through APPOs)

Title: Message

Boris,   I am using 1.4j6 on this particular link. When I first set it up, I set up a ping with 512b every 5 seconds, and had something like 10 dropped packets in the first two WEEKS! Granted, there was very light traffic on this link for that time...   Update on original problem: I did not have the time to screw around with cabling, so I popped in another router and got my system working again. If I ever decide to go back and see what the problem was, I'll let ya'll know.   Jason -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alex Wong Sent: Sunday, June 22, 2003 11:44 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] Urgent DHCP Problem (through APPOs) Boris, do let us know your setup in details with respect to distance, LQ & RSSI (when first in AP & CB mode). Due to protocol nature, the only way to tell that the link is up is by pinging the opposite device or machine. There is no known issue with PtP mode in latest firmware 1.4j6. However, if you want to downgrade to previous ver, simply download the CD ver 1.4 from our support website.    Alex sB Tech Support     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Boris Tillett Sent: Monday, June 23, 2003 1:41 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [smartBridges] Urgent DHCP Problem (through APPOs) Jason,   If you could check the firmware ver. I would be appreciate it.  I am using the new j.6 and the PtP just will not stay up.   Is there a place to download old versions?     Thank you,   Boris   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Boris Tillett Sent: Sunday, June 22, 2003 2:06 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] Urgent DHCP Problem (through APPOs)   Jason,    Did you actually get a PtP link of APPOs to stay connected?  Both times I have set them up they failed within hours or minutes.  One APPO would just stop sending packets.  They did work fine for a few minutes and I was able to get a few DHCP address’ from a server on the other side of the link.   I did have the first APPo set to ethernet side and second APPo set to wireless side for the primary DHCP port.   Hope this helps.  If you have any ideas why my PtP connection dies after a few minutes, please help.   The units can be set back to APs and then they work fine.       Thank you,   Boris Tillett Capitol Broadband (919) 674-0036     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jason Sent: Saturday, June 21, 2003 12:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [smartBridges] Urgent DHCP Problem (through APPOs) Importance: High   I am having a problem passing DHCP over a PtP link of APPOs. Here is what I have:   DSL Modem – APPO Wireless Bridge – APPO Wireless Bridge – DSL Router (Cheapo D-Link 714P) – Devices   The DSL router is not getting its WAN info from the DSL modem.   However… If I do:   DSL Modem – APPO Wireless Bridge – APPO Wireless Bridge – Vonage ATA or DSL Modem – APPO Wireless Bridge – APPO Wireless Bridge – Computer w/ Wireless ethernet adapter (on another channel from the APPO wireless bridge, of course)   … the ATA or computer is able to get a WAN address. The Vonage phone works or the computer can browse the Internet.   Furthermore, if I plug the remote APPO into a LAN port of the router, and the ATA into another LAN port, the ATA can get a WAN address and work fine.   I could plug the router directly into the DSL modem and see if it works, but that is not practical at this very second. Any ideas?   Jason Szumlanski
