Title: Bridge not working
Post by: motlycys on February 18, 2012, 09:14:47 PM

Have ran a bridge between my 1522 and a DIR-615 for over a year (got both for Christmas in 2010). The 615 is connected to the cable modem upstairs and the 1522 is connected to a WD Live downstairs, for watching Netflix and Hulu on the TV.

Recently, the connection has been really shaky. I tested with a netbook connected directly to the 1522. When I pinged the 615 upstairs with 1024 packets, it responded with 1500-2000ms. When I disconnected the 1522 and used direct wireless (not moving the netbook), I got 1-3ms.

We upgraded to the recent firmware with no resolve.

Any other thoughts?

What wireless modes are you using?
Try single mode G or mixed G and N?
What security mode are you using? Preferred security is WPA-Personal. WPA2/Auto TPIK and AES.

Any other WiFi routers in the area? Use InSSIDer (http://www.metageek.net/) to find out.
Turn off Short GI, WLAN Partiton and Extra Wireless Protection if you have it. Under Advanced/Advanced Wireless.
