TomatoUSB

I installed Tomato Firmware 1.28.0000 MIPSR2-108 K26 USB AIO on Linksys E3200. I have got problems with WDS. Tomato is AP + WDS, one other router is configured as wireless accesspoint whic is wirelessly connected to Tomato.

Tomato settings:
AP+WDS
SSID BurekExperts
channel 8
Channel Width 20
Security WPA2 Personal
Encryption AES
WDS Link With 00:1F:A4:8D:E6:1F

Other router which is wirelessly connected to Tomato:

Fixed IP
192.168.1.101
DHCP disabled

AP
SSID BurekExperts
channel 8
Channel Width 20
Security WPA2 Personal
Encryption AES
WDS Link With *tomato MAC*

I can see that wds connected but tomato does not give IPs… IS there any problem with WDS 1.28.0000 MIPSR2-108 K26 USB AIO??

Hi,

Looks like you are doing it wrong. Both devices should be in AP+WDS mode. Follow this easy guide : http://blog.tersmitten.nl/using-tomato-to-create-a-secure-wds-network-with-multiple-3-wrt54gl-routers.html . And no there is no WDS specific router / device. By logic, it should work on all devices and it does. I have 3 different brands of devices in a WDS mode at my place and no problem with a E3200 which is a part of them.

Hope it helps.

Which firmware do you have on your E3200?
Is there any encryption limitation - I have WPA2 personal / AES?

Is there any encryption limitation

No.

I also updated to 116 version of Firmware.

Do you use WPA /WPA2 personal + TKIP?

Can you please do screenshot of accesspoint 1 and accesspoint 2?

It doesnt matter. But i use wpa2 personal aes + tkip on all devices. Just upgraded to newest 116 build, nvram erased and redid the WDS config and no issues.

Sure, ill can send screenshots here as i reach my place but that wont be necessary. Refer to this in the mean time: http://blog.tersmitten.nl/using-tomato-to-create-a-secure-wds-network-with-multiple-3-wrt54gl-routers.html . It has example and screenshots.

Thank you and please post screenshots of your configuration. BR M
