We will configure an additional router also running DD-WRT for client bridge mode. We will call this the client router. The master router In the remaining steps, we will assume your master router has the Local IP address 192.168.1.1 and wireless is enabled. No additional changes need to be performed on the master router to support client bridge
• Configuring Workgroup Bridge Mode • The Workgroup Bridge in a Lightweight Environment. Understanding Workgroup Bridge Mode . You can configure the device as a workgroup bridge. In workgroup bridge mode, the device associates to another access point as a client and provides a network connection for the equipment connected to its Ethernet port. Client bridge mode is used to connect non-wireless networking devices to a wired network wirelessly, acting like a external wireless adapter. Client mode is again the same, with only difference that the Fonera will be in a individual network. Client bridge = at home, client mode = when you want to protect your own network from the remote AP Mar 19, 2006 · Client-transparent-bridge mode: #1 - The DD-WRT radio associates to an AP as a client. It gets an IP address from the AP. #2 - The IP address range (subnet) is the same on the WAN and LAN. The client transparent bridge functions like an ethernet extensioin cord. What is on the ethernet at the AP is on the ethernet of the client-transparent The bridge device will have to reconfigure itself to use the Default Gateway and subnet of the Jetpack so that the Jetpack will act as the "modem". This can be done automatically with preconfigured router modes if they are available on the bridge. 1.6.9 Bridge/Router Mode Session. If VPN session is connected by bridge/router mode session, the limitation whereby layer 2 bridge and layer 3 routing are denied on the VPN connection source side for client mode sessions and as a rule any kind of communication can be carried out.

Client Bridge Mode. Client Bridge mode can be used on the La Fonera to turn it from a router receiving a network connection through it's WAN RJ45 port (from a host router or modem), to a wireless adapter receiving a network connection through it's wireless interface (from a host router).
Bridge mode is called IP Passthrough on the NVG589 and can be found in the Firewall settings. You can find detailed instructions for setting things up in this article . Be especially sure to change the LAN subnet on the R7000 to something other than 192.168.1.0/24. This is possible using 3rd party firmware (sveasoft) which allows the wrt54g to operate in "client" mode, where it forwards packets from its connected devices to the main wireless router, using a wireless link. I got my wrt54g running in client mode - that is, it serves as a bridge between a PC attached to it and the main wireless router. A wireless router in normal Gateway mode act as a host for a local wireless network. In bridge mode is is client for some other wireless network. In those circumstances you need to connect another router in gateway mode via wire if you want your own wireless network. It wireless router cannot be both client and host simultaneously.
