Hi,

just want to mention that there is still one problem that persists currently with obtaining IP address after setting all up as described in this thread.

For example, I'm connected to Network 1 on the ground floor and I climb on the 1st floor where Network 2 is stronger. When I try to switch from Network 1 to Network 2 I'm having same obtaining IP problems as described before. FurryNutz maybe you have some idea how to fix this as well?

Thank you!

About the obtaining, your device receives a 192.168..0.xx address?
Since that is my problem..

Hi Johnny & FurryN.

It seams that some problems persist out there with obtaining IP address for clients that have connected to Network 2 (the one that get signal from DAP-1360). So the problem is not only appearing when you try to connect to Network 2 after you were connected to Network 1, it also appears after you are constantly connected to the Network 2. After some longer period of time, devices connected to Network 2 through DAP-1360 start to encounter the same obtaining IP address problems. Then, if restart DAP-1360 everything is fine again. So it seams, restarting DAP-1360 from while to while helps a bit. But that is not quite practical.

@Johnny, my device receives correct IP address on Network 2 only if I "forget" Network 1 on my device. If I don't do that, I can't get an IP from DAP. That makes impossible to walk through the building and change your network depending on the strength of the signal. A little bit frustrating, but I hope we'll solve the issues with generous help from FurryNutz.

Thanks

Hey, what a fast solution to my problem!
Since I reset my DAP this problem persisted with my Android, and now it's over!! Thank you!

It seems that I have found a solution to my issue regarding obtaining IP address.

To solution was to give every extender their own SSID.
It still gives the right IP addresses after 4 days..

[FurryNutz]

Can you detail us how you did this?
What modes are you using the extenders in? I presume AP mode?

Glad you found a fix for this...

My main router and DAP Access Point have different SSIDs. Main router is Network 1, DAP Access Point is Network 2, but there is still problem with obtaining IP address to devices connected to Network 2 as I described few posts above. So in my case, giving different SSIDs didn't solve the problem.

[FurryNutz]

Can you disable the DHCP services on the DAP and set it up so it lets the DHCP server on the main host router pass thru IP addressing and see if that works. Sounds like when DHCP is enabled on the DAP, it's not passing out IP addresses. What is the IP address of the main host router and the DAP?

Hi FurryNutz. Yes, my DAP is set to Static IP already.

My LAN Connection is : STATIC IP ADDRESS IP Address :    

IP Address :   192.168.1.50
Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0
Gateway address: 192.168.1.1

[FurryNutz]

So the main host router is at 192.168.1.1? Hmmm...this should be passing thru IPs in this configuration to devices if the DAP is wired or bridged to main host router...What is the Mfr and model of the main host router?

[Konekcija]

Yes, the main router is at 192.168.1.1. The main router is Siemens Gigaset SX763 model. I got it from my internet provider (T-Com).

[FurryNutz]

Whats it's DHCP Pool IP address set for? From and to? 192.168.1.100 to .199?

[Konekcija]

On main rooter 1st issued IP is set to 192.168.1.100 and last issued IP is set to 192.168.1.253.

[FurryNutz]

Ok, so what happens if you don't use a static IP address on the DAP and let the DAP get an IP address from the main host router?

Only think I can think of would be to factory reset, reload FW, factor reset after that and set up from scratch using the wizard...

Hi guys. Sorry for not replying for a while. Somehow I forgot to enable notification for this topic so I didn't noticed you have replied to me FurryNutz.

So, my problem still persists. Every now and then I need to restart (unplug and plug again) DAP because if I don't do that people trying to connect to my Network 2 (the one transmitted from DAP) are not able to get an IP address from it. When I unplug/plug the DAP, everything works fine for a while, and then I need to do the same procedure.

So, you are suggesting doing a factory reset and setting it up from beginning?

Thanks
