    Router connected to Client Bridge: Wireless still halved

    Follow Up: So my DIY Repeater works perfectly now, I don't see the 50% penalty on bandwidth when connected wirelessly to my AP. So my primary router and the client bridge is on channel 1, and my AP, which is connected wired to the client bridge, is on channel 11. The client bridge and...

    Lessons Learned from Antenna Experiments

    Just Checking, Did you encounter any problems while using single band antennas (2.4 ghz) RT-AC66R, ie, problems or damages to the 5 ghz radio? I'm interested on increasing the 2.4 ghz range on my N66U, and most, if not all places sell only single band antennas for 2.4 ghz. I came across...

    Router connected to Client Bridge: Wireless still halved

    This is what I have set up. ISP modem --wired--WAN Stock Asus N66U --wireless-- client bridge (WRT54G w/ DD-WRT) LAN--wired--LAN access point (stock WRT54G) For client bridge, I followed the exact steps from here: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Client_Bridge Asus is on channel 1...

    Router connected to Client Bridge: Wireless still halved

    stevech, which part of the setup is there an echo? Thanks

    Router connected to Client Bridge: Wireless still halved

    Is there any way to remove this "half-duplex"? Or turn it into full-duplex? My wireless clients are connected to the access point (which is connected via Ethernet cable to the client bridge), not to the client bridge.

    Router connected to Client Bridge: Wireless still halved

    What baffles me is that, the access point that is connected to the client bridge is connected via wired connection, not wireless. So the access point should be using the radio to communicate with the client and nothing else. The confusing part is, I get no loss in speed on my computer when...

    Router connected to Client Bridge: Wireless still halved

    I will make sure they are on different channels and see how it goes. Thanks!

    Router connected to Client Bridge: Wireless still halved

    stevech, I believe so. To put it in simpler words, I'm trying to build a repeater bridge [dd-wrt] without losing half the bandwidth over wireless. I assume that if I connect a client bridge with a router/ap, I shouldn't see the theoretical loss in bandwidth seen in a repeater bridge, since...

    Router connected to Client Bridge: Wireless still halved

    Device: WRT54G v.6 Firmware: dd-wrt I have the WRT54G set up as a client bridge. Everything works, when I connect my computer via the LAN port of the client bridge, I was able to get almost 90% of the ISP's internet speed. What I'm trying is, connecting another router to the client...

    QOS through access points

    stevech, There certainly has to be way right, at least for home users? :( I would hate to yell out "Who's downloading/torrenting??!!!" every time Internet slows to a crawl because someone in my house is downloading. Pardon me for being ignorant, I thought bandwidth management was part of QOS...

    QOS through access points

    coxhaus, I'm concerned about the traffic that leaves the router. I don't want people who's torrenting to hoard all the bandwidth and leave little for others to surf the web. I kind of looked into pfsense, and actually routers from Mikrotik, and they're actually a lot more advanced than I...

    QOS through access points

    stevech, My apologies for not stating it in the OP, WiFi signal is fine. Shaw gave me a modem/router combo, but the QOS on the router is inadequate. What solutions do I have if I need to have the ability to control internet traffic? Thanks.

    QOS through access points

    stevech, If that was the case, is there anything I could do? Or even take out the access point out of that problem, if I only have the Shaw modem/router unit, and it doesn't have a very good QOS capability, how would I go about implementing QOS to control my internet traffic? Thanks.

    QOS through access points

    thiggins, So what you are saying is, if I put a router into access point mode, I won't be able to use QOS of the router? If that's the case, what options do I have? I can't move the Shaw modem anywhere else, and I have to use the modem/router combo that they have provided. Reason I'm looking...
