Hello,
is it possible to use WPA(2) encryption with WDS between two APs?
Two friends of mine have the following situation:
+--> Computer
dsl modem <---> WL-500gP <~~~> [WRT] <~~~> WRT <---> computer
+~~> Notebook
<---> ethernet <~~~> WLAN
The modem and Asus router replaces an old broken WAG, which was connected to
the first WRT with an (flat) ethernet cable (the router is on the balcony, the
door smashed the cable (again)).
The WRTs run under DD-WRT with WDS and WPA, but the connection wasn't reliable,
so I got two of these devices for testing a different firmware.
If it is not possible to use the old configuration, I'm thinking about to
configure the balcony-WRT as AP and both end-point routers as clients. At least
with one client (sta) and an AP WPA-PSK2 it seems to work. (I don't remember if
it was necessary to start nas on the client manually, but it worked with
encryption (well, only ping used :)
What do you think? Is it possible or do I miss here something?
As side note: Is it true that two APs cannot be connected with WPA-PSK2?
It doesn't work here.
