OK, I have my Linksys
WRT54G v1.1 router set to repeater mode. I have added a Virtual AP and
everything works fine. It gets an IP form from the router across the street.
But the instead I enable MAC Cloning it drops the WAN IP. What is wrong with
it? Help!!!
OK - let's get on with that..and let's see what I can do...
Are you using standard Linksys firmware? To my knowledge, only third party frimware like DD-WRT and Tomato are capable of that. If so, have a look
Why do you need MAC cloning? (I'm just interested - maybe I can learn something too!)
Do you have access to the router "across the street"?
Good luck!
Hey man, "thanks" for the "inappropriate" rating...;-(
But see what I found here:
We are currently experiencing Client Bridge and Repeater Bridge
problems when the host is a non-Linux based router. If you are
experiencing problem or would like to report a non-linux router as a
problem please post in this thread.
We are trying to keep this list up to date. Client Bridge is said to be
working with the old V23 SP2 build...but not the newest V24 builds.
Maybe that gets you a little further!

What? Nobody has a
solution?
Ok, let’s see here...
I am running:
DD-WRT v24 svn build
11296
VINT std nokaid
nohotspot nostor
No, I don’t have
access to the router across the street nor do I need to. It’s just some dumb
neighbor that has an open AP, so I’m using it to test my Linksys on his router.
I found a temp fix, if I
switch to Repeater Bridge, save and then switch back to Repeater, it will work.
But once I reboot the router I’ll have to redo the same trick again.
I guess I have to get my
JTAG cable out. Create a new CFE file for the WRT54G with the fake MAC in it
and then flash it back. But then I’m stuck with the fake MAC until I flash back
my original CFE. :-(
Oh yeah, there is
nothing new when you enable MAC Cloning, besides hiding or faking your device identity.
It’s working but not
with MAC Cloning enabled.
You’re welcome. It’s not
my problem that you can't read. Complain to your teacher or your parents, I don’t
know, nor do I give a **** about rating like you do.
Are you happy now?
Besides this a v24 pre SP2.
