Hi,
I have problem setting up OpenWRT as client bridge. I try to connect non-wifi enabled devices to network but I don't have network port.
When I tried to add lan ethernet port to network with client wifi the connection stop working (I can no longer ping anything from router). Currently I'm thinking about having a gretap tunnel between client and AP so that client can share network from gretap. But is there a simpler way?
A simpler way is to use WDS, if the AP supports it.
Relayd can also do the task, but is more complicated and has limitations.
The behaviour of network going down is with WDS. Even if it is on different network than I use to access machine.
Let's have a look.
