We have a pair of Cisco 1242AG's that we're trying to bridge together. Our layout would be as follows: The root building has a switch connected to the first 1242 would be bridged to the second 1242 using the A radio. At the remote building (about 300 feet away, but no way to run wire to it), the second 1242AG would be installed with the b/g radio setup for client access. Ideally we would like to do this and support multiple tagged VLans (Management, and two other VLans for a pair of SSID's), but would will settle for a single VLan if need be.
We've been able to find documents to create bridges with 1300's and 1400's, but haven't found anything to help us when trying to do it using two 1242's. I tried following the closest document from Cisco that I can find (http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_configuration_example09186a008058f53e.shtml) and it sort of works, but the client-bridge AP continuously says "Warning: INterface Dot1Radio1, cannot associate: EAP authenticating". While the root-bridge keeps flipping between "RADIUS Server xx.xx.xx.xx is not responding" and then "RADIUS Server xx.xx.xx.xx has returned". Both access points show the other end of the bridge link if we look at the Associations, but the state is reporting "Association processing". We're welcome any ideas. Both access points are identical and were started with a reset to factory defaults.
