If CPE is transparent bridge, it will be OK. Any other CPE does Mac NAT like Linksys WET11 will have the same problem.
If you put AccessPoint, this will be 100% OK regardless of vendor.

Is this a matter of bridge & access point ??? or is this an issue with an airbridge. Will other CPE than smartbridge do it ??? or Do we need an accesspoint no matter the manufacturer I use ??? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of sB Tech Support Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2003 5:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] Backhaul with Air bridge. If the airBridge is connected directly to the router and with old firmware (transparent bridge), this will work.

I had the same question and was told that this: "Is it advisable to use aPPO in client bridge mode at the base station. If you want to use airBridge, then it has to connect to a router with transparent bridge firmware. Because airBridge with newer firmware, it does Mac translation, so you can't pass traffic to internet in that setup. " So this setup is preferred: Base Station----aPPO (CB)-----------aPPO (AP)----------Wireless clients. With this, it is transparent bridge and can support multimac. Alex sB Tech Support [EMAIL PROTECTED] In theory I think this is fine because the Airbridge at the customer recive and send information to the internet. I think that you can connect the Airbridge to the router or switch>>>connect using wireless to the APP0 and have our customers connect to that APPO using wireless. (wired)router>>>Airbridge>>>>APPO>>>Customers using Airbridge indoor or outdoor.
