AirVPN with DD-WRT and access point

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I have one problem. I am using airvpn on dd-wrt router and that works like a charm. I also setup some policies as you suggested in previous posts, and some machines are on VPN and some are not.

Now I have problem to setup access point. I do not want to use wireless repeater, because it is slow if many devices are connected...

 

I want to wire access point (not wiereless) and use the same SSID as main router has...

 

My configuration:

 

DSL model (10.10.2.1) <-LAN-------WAN-> DD-WRT router (10.10.3.1) <-LAN-------LAN-> access point [non-dd-wrt] (?.?.?.?)

 

 

DD-WRT 'sees' DSL modem (via routing), but DSL modem doesn't know for 10.10.3.1/24 network.

 

 

What I did:

1. Disabled DHCP on access point

2. Connected router's LAN with access point's LAN (not WAN)

3. Set access point's IP address to 10.10.3.2...

4. Set router's channel to 6

5. Set access point's channel to 11

6. Set access point's SSID to the same SSID as router has

and at the end I cannot establish IP anymore if I use access point's wireless network.

 

I tried to leave on DHCP on access point..., but in that case I do not have access to the internet but I can connect to the access point's wireless...

 

 

I suppose AirVPN's firewall commands are problem:

iptables -I FORWARD -i br0 -o tun1 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -i tun1 -o br0 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT -i tun1 -j REJECT
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o tun1 -j MASQUERADE

iptables -I FORWARD -s 10.10.2.0/24 -j ACCEPT
 

 

 

 

Can someone help me with this?

 

Thanks in advance.

I probably can't help you very much, but where did you do this and why? 

3. Set access point's IP address to 10.10.3.2...

 

I have a similar setup kinda.... modem -> non-ddwrt router (to broadcast wireless outside VPN) -> PFSENSE with AirVPN -> DDWRT Wireless Access Point.   

 

I set the local address to 192.168.1.2.  Does your AP router have these options?

Use DNSMasq for DHCP or DNS?

I disabled those and disabled the WAN.

 

 

Hope this helps somewhat...

My access point does not have ddwrt and cannot install it. So there is no DnsMask option. Access point is dodocool...

Yes, it is set to be access point.
