Wireless-N 300 Modem Router DGN2200 User Manual To set up the multi-point bridge configuration shown in Figure 6-17: 1. Configure the operating mode of the wireless-N modem routers. • Because it is in a central location, configure the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router (AP 1) on LAN Segment 1 in point-to-multi-point bridge mode, and enter the MAC addresses of AP-2 and AP-3 in the Remote MAC Address 1 and Remote MAC Address 2 fields. • Configure the access point (AP2) on LAN Segment 2 in point-to-point bridge mode with the remote MAC address of the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router. • Configure the access point (AP3) on LAN Segment 3 in point-to-point bridge mode with the remote MAC address of the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router. 2. Disable the DHCP server on AP2 and AP3. AP1 will then be the DHCP server. 3. Verify the following for all access points: • The LAN network configuration of the wireless-N modem router and other access points are configured to operate in the same LAN network address range as the LAN devices. • Only one AP, the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router in Figure 6-17, is configured in point-to-multi-point bridge mode; all the others are in point-to-point bridge mode. • All APs, including the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router, must be on the same LAN. That is, all the AP LAN IP addresses must be in the same network. • If you are using DHCP, all access points should be set to Obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP Client) in the IP Address Source section of the Basic IP Settings screen. • All APs, including the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router, must use the same SSID, channel, authentication mode, if any, and WEP security settings if security is in use. • All point-to-point APs must have the MAC address of AP 1 (the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router in the previous figure) in the Remote AP MAC address field. 4. Verify connectivity across the LANs. • A computer on any LAN segment should be able to connect to the Internet or share files and printers with any other PCs or servers connected to any of the three LAN segments. Note: Wireless stations configured as they are in Figure 6-17 will not be able to connect to the wireless-N modem router or access points. If you require wireless stations to access any LAN segment, you can use additional access points configured in wireless access point mode in any LAN segment.

Wireless-N 300 Modem Router DGN2200 User Manual
Advanced Configuration
6-23
v1.0, March 2010
To set up the multi-point bridge configuration shown in
Figure 6-17
:
1.
Configure the operating mode of the wireless-N modem routers.
•
Because it is in a central location, configure the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router (AP
1) on LAN Segment 1 in point-to-multi-point bridge mode, and enter the MAC addresses
of
AP-2 and AP-3 in the
Remote MAC Address 1
and
Remote MAC Address 2
fields.
•
Configure the access point (AP2) on LAN Segment 2 in point-to-point bridge mode with
the remote MAC address of the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router.
•
Configure the access point (AP3) on LAN Segment 3 in point-to-point bridge mode with
the remote MAC address of the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router.
2.
Disable the DHCP server on AP2 and AP3. AP1 will then be the DHCP server.
3.
Verify the following for all access points:
•
The LAN network configuration of the wireless-N modem router and other access points
are configured to operate in the same LAN network address range as the LAN devices.
•
Only one AP, the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router in
Figure 6-17
, is configured in
point-to-multi-point bridge mode; all the others are in point-to-point bridge mode.
•
All APs, including the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router, must be on the same LAN.
That is, all the AP LAN IP addresses must be in the same network.
•
If you are using DHCP, all access points should be set to
Obtain an IP address
automatically (DHCP Client)
in the IP Address Source section of the Basic IP Settings
screen.
•
All APs, including the DGN2200 wireless-N modem router, must use the same SSID,
channel, authentication mode, if any, and WEP security settings if security is in use.
•
All point-to-point APs must have the MAC address of AP 1 (the DGN2200 wireless-N
modem router in the previous figure) in the
Remote AP MAC address
field.
4.
Verify connectivity across the LANs.
•
A computer on any LAN segment should be able to connect to the Internet or share files
and printers with any other PCs or servers connected to any of the three LAN segments.
Note:
Wireless stations configured as they are in
Figure 6-17
will not be able to connect
to the wireless-N modem router or access points. If you require wireless stations to
access any LAN segment, you can use additional access points configured in wire-
less access point mode in any LAN segment.
