ADSL2+ Modem Wireless Router DG834G Reference Manual • Configure the access point (AP3) on LAN Segment 3 in Point-to-Point Bridge mode with the remote MAC address of the DG834G v4 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 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 DG834G v4 modem router in Figure 5-9, is configured in Point-toMulti-Point Bridge mode; all the others are in Point-to-Point Bridge mode. • All APs, including the DG834G v4 modem router, must be on the same LAN. That is, all the AP LAN IP addresses must be in the same network. • If 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 DG834G v4 modem router, must use the same SSID, channel, authentication mode, if any, and encryption in use. • All point-to-point APs must have the MAC address of AP 1 (the DG834G v4 modem router in the above diagram) 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 5-9 will not be able to connect to the 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. Repeater with Wireless Client Association In this mode, the ADSL2+ Modem Wireless Router sends all traffic to a remote AP. For Repeater mode, you must enter the MAC address of the remote "parent" access point. Alternatively, you can configure the ADSL2+ Modem Wireless Router as the parent by entering the address of a "child" access point. Note that the following restrictions apply: • You do not have the option of disabling client associations with this ADSL2+ Modem Wireless Router. 5-16 v2.0, September 2007 Advanced Configuration

Verify the following for all access points:
•
The LAN network configuration of the 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 DG834G v4 modem router in
Figure 5-9
, is configured in Point-to-
Multi-Point Bridge mode; all the others are in Point-to-Point Bridge mode.
•
All APs, including the DG834G v4 modem router, must be on the same LAN. That is, all
the AP LAN IP addresses must be in the same network.
•
If 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 DG834G v4 modem router, must use the same SSID, channel,
authentication mode, if any, and encryption in use.
•
All point-to-point APs must have the MAC address of AP 1 (the DG834G v4 modem
router in the above diagram) 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.
Repeater with Wireless Client Association
In this mode, the ADSL2+ Modem Wireless Router sends all traffic to a remote AP. For Repeater
mode, you must enter the MAC address of the remote “parent” access point. Alternatively, you can
configure the ADSL2+ Modem Wireless Router as the parent by entering the address of a “child”
access point. Note that the following restrictions apply:
•
You
do not
have the option of disabling client associations with this ADSL2+ Modem
Wireless Router.
Note:
Wireless stations configured as they are in
Figure 5-9
will not be able to connect to
the 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.
